Chapter was founded on the campus of UC Santa Barbara on February 14, 1974. We hold the distinct honor of being
the first African American organization on this campus, as well as opening the doors for all others to follow. Kappa
Omega is committed to upholding the high morality,scholarship, sisterhood, and serivce that our illustrious founders
envisioned. We prize ourselves on our exceptional community services and social events that we provide for the African
American community, and general student population within the community of Santa Barbara.
Over the years Kappa Omega members have
initiated many activities including, but not limited to: assisting with voter registration, an annual Youth Leadership Conference,
Intellectual Delta house-allowing students a comfortable place to study for midterms and finals, an annual Condom Balloon
Sale, candlelight vigils, and active participation in the Endowment for Youth Black Achievement Awards.
Along with the many Delta Sponsored activities,
Kappa Omega Chapter members have also been active leaders for the campus politically. Members have expressed their interest
in being positive role models by participating in campus groups/organizations such as: Black Student Union, Black Business
Association, Black Pre-Law, EOP Peer Advisors, Resident Assistants, Career Peers, Black Grad Committee, UCSB Gospel Choir,
and participating in Associated Students as members of finance Board, Community Board and Legislative Council
The National goals and standards
of Delta Sigma Theta that are illustrated in our Five Point Program shine through in our Sisterhood within the members of
the Chapter. In addition, our contributions to the local and campus community emulates our strong beliefs in striving
to be Successful, Competent, and Positive Role Models for our people.
