Sisters of Kappa Alpha Theta,
Our University’s rich history is entwined with the contributions of student organizations such as yours. With our utmost respect and appreciation, we write to thank you for your continued service in the University Community and for your historic contribution to preserving these central Grounds that Thomas Jefferson originally envisioned.
The Rotunda and Academical Village are the physical and spiritual centers of this University. Your endeavors further our University’s commitmentment to the pursuit of knowledge, united by the values of honor and service. In doing so, you have broken new ground in philanthropic efforts at the University.
Here on Grounds, your dedication to cultivating and supporting strong, female leaders and to improving both the University and Charlottesville communities have not gone unnoticed. Your outreach through Piedmont CASA touches the lives of so many children and families in Charlottesville and beyond. Your support of the One Love Foundation highlights your commitment to sisterhood and your dedication to ending intimate partner violence.
The Z Society seeks to recognize and elevate the work of those who contribute to the University community, with a deep-seated love for this place as their foundational motivation. Thank you for embodying the noble values of the Greek system. We congratulate you on four decades of service, and we look forward to watching you continue to inspire other organizations across Grounds.
Mystically,
