Kappa Phi Lambda About Us

Sorority History

Seven extraordinary women came together to establish Kappa Phi Lambda Sorority, Inc. at Binghamton University on March 9, 1995. These seven founders: Elizabeth Choi, Karen Eng, Rei Hirasawa, Hee Cho Moon, Chae Yoo Park, Samantha Somchanhmavong, and Connie Yang united with a single vision of providing women with the chance to use their pride in their heritage to become leaders of society. This cultural based sorority was to unite young women of differing heritages and encourage them to make use of their strong voices and thoughts.

Colony History

Miami University Colony was founded on April 22nd, 2006 by five amazing women Jessica Yang, Akane Tsuji, Angela Beal, Elizabeth Hang, Sutina Kao, they first met in the student organization AAA (Asian American Association). Miami University hosts over 50 sororities and fraternities but very few of them were cultural based so the charters started working towards establishing Kappa Phi Lambda in Miami University.Kappa Phi Lambda Inc. Preamble"We, the sisters of the Kappa Phi Lambda Sorority, Incorporated, strive to strengthen Sisterhood amongst women by providing Service and promoting Cultural Diversity to our members and our community, thus securing the bond of kinship for posterity.

Recruitment

What is Rush?

Membership recruitment (also known as “rush”) is a period of time at a university during which a student can get to know the members and values of the sorority. Recruitment events are both social and informative and are opportunities for the student to find out if the organization is right for her. Kappa Phi Lambda recruitment events are always free, so students should feel welcome to come and have fun without further obligation.

What is a Bid?

A bid is an invitation to you from a chapter or colony to begin the process to join Kappa Phi Lambda. After recruitment ends, bids are given to individuals deemed to be a good fit for our organization. In order to be eligible for a bid, the interested individual must go through an interview process and attend a set number of recruitment events (which may vary depending on individual schools).

FAQ

What is the difference between Kappa Phi Lambda and a club?Undeniably, it is easier to join a club than a Greek organization. However, what a club lacks is sisterhood, a certain unmistakable bond. Sisterhood is eternal in the sense that it is something that does not just dissipate during semester breaks or after graduation. Many members stay lifelong friends and participate in sorority activities as alumnae, therefore providing infinite post-collegiate networking opportunities.Will joining affect my academics?Kappa Phi Lambda values academic excellence and recognizes that the reason students enter college is to receive an education. Students must maintain the minimum academic criteria set by their respective universities in order to participate in the sorority. Individual chapters and colonies may also have additional academic requirements for joining. Additionally, the intake process will provide and encourage regular study hours.I’m not Asian or Asian American. Can I still join Kappa Phi Lambda?Absolutely! Although the sorority promotes Pan-Asian culture, we strongly encourage women of all backgrounds to consider joining. In fact, our current membership boasts of women from a diverse array of cultures. As one of our three pillars, Cultural Diversity is an essential part of the organization’s identity. We celebrate this diversity by holding cultural events on campuses and within our communities. Chapters and colonies also host joint events with other clubs and Greek-lettered organizations to further promote a spirit of cultural awareness. We believe recognizing individual members for the unique value they add makes us greater as a whole.What is Kappa Phi Lambda’s view on hazing?Kappa Phi Lambda enforces an anti-hazing policy via the National Constitution and Risk Management Policy and in accordance with university policies and state laws. All existing and prospective members have the right to be treated fairly, with dignity and respect. Hence, our intake process is positive, and focuses on nurturing prospective members to become women of values and vision. How will Kappa Phi Lambda enrich my college experience?College is a time to explore, become well-rounded and gain the skills necessary to enter post-collegiate life. Although academics are important, there are other skills which can empower you as an individual. Social, organizational and leadership skills are just as crucial, whether you plan to enter the workforce or continue your education post-graduation. Joining a sorority can help students learn these skills and offer the opportunity to be more deeply involved within the college and local communities.Will Kappa Phi Lambda give me opportunities for networking?With over 1,000 sisters nationwide and a close bond that connects us all – there are infinite networking opportunities. Many alumnae sisters participate actively in sorority activities. They are also involved in alum-only sisterhood activities and are kept updated through an alumnae network and close friendships. Years after graduation, sisters find success both professionally and personally, all the while continuing to represent the sorority’s letters.Why Kappa Phi Lambda?This may be the most important question on your mind. To answer your question, we emphasize our strong values. Although we build many friendships and memories between a diverse group of young women across generations, our ideals of cultural education and social impact is what makes Kappa Phi Lambda stand out. We believe in not only helping the community but being an important force in society. Every Asian American woman (and every woman in general) deserves to have a voice that is heard. We hope to help our members become leaders of the world.
