n a sunny afternoon in late October, Kappa Phi Lambda Sorority Inc. marked the beginning of the first annual Midwest Sisterhood Social, MiSS, in the windy city of Chicago.  The Nu Chapter at Northwestern University hosted a weekend filled with a variety of activites aimed to bond new and old sisters together.  MiSS had been an idea long discussed amongst the midwest colonies, wishing to have a weekend long event where schools in the region could simply get together and have fun.  Due to the phenomenal growth of the sorority, sisters in the midwest felt the need for an event like MiSS.   Northwestern, being the first addition to the Kappa Phi Lambda family to branch out of the east coast, was extremely excited at the growth of our sorority in the midwest and was honored to be the first school to host the event. 

With the support of Central Council sisters and big sisters in attendance, in addition to midwest sisters, the event was a great success.  The weekend was kicked off with a dinner party in downtown Chicago at the restaraunt Koi  A welcome speech was made, goody-bags were handed out, and even an ice breaker game was played and prizes rewarded.  After dinner sisters had the option of relaxing and watching a movie, going to sing karaoke, or hanging out in Northwestern's college town, Evanston.  Saturday morning began with breakfast at the multicultural center, coffee bagels and danishes were served.  Later on, a trip was made to downtown Chicago where sisters did eye shopping, site seeing, and enoyed some of Chicago's most famous foods.  At night, Nu Chapter hosted a very successful Halloween costume party where sisters shook their cat tails, tipped their cowboy hats, and swung their police clubs.  Nu Chapter, University of Michigan Colony, Ohio State University Colony, and Northern Illinois University Colony are extremely excited to continue the tradition.
