Since the early 1900s, International Women’s Day has been observed to celebrate the achievements of women and call to action the acceleration of gender parity. March 8 is recognized as International Women’s Day, and collectively we can work to #BreakTheBias, the International Women’s Day 2022 theme.
This August, Alpha Kappa Psi will celebrate the 46th anniversary of women being admitted into the fraternity. The fraternity has come a long way from the first six women initiated at Tri-State University in 1976. The organization has seen its first woman chairs of both the fraternity and foundation board of directors, and the first woman president and vice president of the fraternity.
During the fall of 2020, we launched an anonymous survey regarding diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) to better understand how well our fraternity fosters a culture in which all members can be their true authentic selves.
