Tri Delta to re-establish Alpha Kappa Chapter at UMaine
The University of Maine Panhellenic Council has selected Tri Delta to re-establish its Alpha Kappa Chapter at UMaine in the 2016–17 academic year.
Tri Delta (Delta Delta Delta) will become the eighth National Panhellenic Conference organization on campus, joining Alpha Omicron Pi, Alpha Phi, Chi Omega, Delta Phi Epsilon, Delta Zeta, Phi Mu and Pi Beta Phi, as well as associate member Kappa Delta Phi National Affiliated Sorority, Inc.
The Interfraternity Council at UMaine also currently recognizes 18 fraternities.
Colonization details have yet to be announced, according to a Tri Delta news release.
The local leadership of the chapter made the decision to close after the 2000–01 academic year. The decision was not prompted by any campus disciplinary action.
Since 2006, sorority membership at UMaine has grown by more than 80 percent. The addition of Tri Delta will continue to add to the positive growth of the community.
More information, including the full news release, is on the Tri Delta website.
