KAPPA SIGMA ELECTS

This collection of vintage newspaper clippings documents an important moment in the early history of Kappa Sigma Chapter, now the North Jersey Alumnae Chapter (NJAC) of Delta Sigma Theta Sorority, Incorporated. The headlines—prominently featuring phrases such as “Kappa Sigma Chapter” and “Elects Officers”—capture the chapter as it formally organized its leadership and strengthened its administrative foundation. These clippings offer a rare glimpse into the chapter’s formative years, highlighting the women who stepped forward to guide the chapter’s mission, represent its voice at regional gatherings, and shape its role within both the Sorority and the northern New Jersey community.


The articles reflect the chapter’s commitment to structure, governance, and community-centered leadership from the very beginning. Names of newly elected officers, reports from delegates, and descriptions of ceremonial installations underscore the professionalism and purpose with which Kappa Sigma operated. The installation of officers, community acknowledgments, and references to Sorors who carried out these duties illustrate the cooperative spirit and strong organizational ethic that defined the chapter’s early identity. This image stands as a historical testament to the vision, dedication, and leadership of Kappa Sigma’s early membership—women whose work laid the foundation for NJAC’s enduring legacy of service and sisterhood.
