About Kappa Delta Sigma
In February of 1969 a new local sorority was founded on the campus of St. Lawrence University in Canton, NY. Since then, Kappa Delta Sigma has continued to be grounded in the principles of faith in friendship, concern for human dignity, and respect for the individual. The sisters have maintained a high academic standing, have been leaders in all aspects of the St. Lawrence experience and have initiated many philanthropic projects while enjoying the closeness of their sisterhood. There are now over 1,200 KDS Alumnae. They have served the University in significant ways including student mentoring, admissions, fundraising, Alumni Executive Council, and the Board of Trustees.

Our Mission
Kappa Delta Sigma, a local sorority at St. Lawrence University, is founded upon the principles of faith in friendship, concern for human dignity, and respect for the individual, her ideas, beliefs and feelings.
​
Inherent in these principles is the understanding that the worth of an individual cannot be measured. Every person has something to offer and much can be gained from the interpersonal relationships of a group bound by common goals and ideals. ​
Our Vision
Kappa Delta Sigma has as its goal the perpetuation of friendship and love that grows out of living and working together in a college community. We, as individuals, strive for an education and an understanding of others, both of which can be enhanced by the rewarding experience of community service.
Our vision is to continue nurturing a supportive sisterhood that encourages academic excellence, leadership, and service to the community.
