Grand Convention 2012

Each Grand Convention determines the direction of our Fraternity for the next biennium. So at Grand Convention 2012, we wrote the next chapter in the story of Kappa Alpha Theta at the JW Marriott Starr Pass Resort and Spa.

We also celebrated our membership and friendships in Kappa Alpha Theta and recognized the tremendous potential within each of us for social, intellectual, and moral growth.

Come join us for Grand Convention 2014 in Orlando, Florida!

What Is Grand Convention?

The legislative body of the Fraternity, Grand Convention meets every two years (even-numbered) to address official Fraternity business. The voting members of the Convention body include a delegate from each college and alumnae chapter, Grand Council, college district presidents, alumnae district presidents, and the NPC delegate. Discussing and voting on legislation, receiving reports from officers, and electing Council officers is just an example of some of the information covered.

In addition to business sessions, Grand Convention includes a variety of traditional events including:
 

• Fun Night
• Alumnae Chapter Recognition Luncheon
• Parade of Flags and College Chapter Recognition Dinner
• The Convention Banquet (including the Convention Banquet Procession, a tradition since 1911)

All Kappa Alpha Theta sisters are encouraged to attend Grand Convention and participate in the deliberations and festivities. Convention attendees make new friends or renew bonds from the past while being entertained in fun cities like Tucson. Each Convention has its own unique theme and flavor, but every Convention celebrates the very best of Kappa Alpha Theta.
