Kappa Gamma Delta History
Kappa
Gamma Delta began during the winter quarter of 1994 at the University
of California, Davis when students Charlene Tran and Marge Lee
envisioned a professional sorority that would provide support for women
during the premedical process. They and 10 other women made up the
founding class of 12 scholars. With the help from Sigma Mu Delta, a
premedical fraternity, KGD began it's history. During the first meeting
on March 3, 1994, in the lounge of Temescal apartments in Davis, twelve
women committed themselves to the responsibility and dedication in the
construction of this new sorority in the United States of America. With
its founding, Kappa Gamma Delta became the first premedical sorority in
the United States of America.
Kappa Gamma Delta was founded at the University of California, Santa Cruz in Winter 2006 with nine founding mothers Dhanna Ayento, Abby Cabrera, Arliss Dudley-Cash, Randi Kuwata, Linda Le, Tiffany Tse, Adrianne Villalvazo, Janine Wu and Linda Young, becoming the
Charter Class of Kappa Gamma Delta, Zeta Chapter.
