Meet a New Sister

On April 22nd, the Lock Haven University

Sigma Kappa sisters will have an Earth Day
table outside of Raub Hall. From 11 a.m. to

environmental awareness by handing out
packets of seeds to plant around the

You would be surprised how much a few sisters can accomplish

Frances Mann and Louise Helen Coburn.
The organization supports five core
philanthropies: Sigma Kappa Foundation,
Inherit the Earth, Gerontology, Maine Sea Coat
Mission, and Walk to End Alzheimers.

Meet Your New Sister

Kate White decided to save the best for last when
she pledged Sigma Kappa her senior year. Her
journey as a sister is only beginning, and she has
deeply grown to love the sisterhood.
I have made lifelong friends,
and I have seen personal growth
in myself I could have never
imagined without joining. I have
become more confident and this
has even led to an improvement
in my classes. I wish I had
joined earlier. Kate White

In the spring of 2015 she will graduate with a B.A.

in Communication with a concentration in Public
Relations and Advertising. She plans to pursue a
career in advertising in Lancaster, Pennsylvania.
Additionally, she wants to become an advisor to a
local Sigma Kappa chapter.
