Kathleen Davis Nye, University of Iowa, speaks to Margaret Paddock Haller, Cornell University, about her Tri Delta career, beginning with her time as traveling secretary from 1943-1945, including a time she traveled on a troop train during World War II, then later serving as fraternity chairman of academic standards, district president of Indiana, and fraternity collegiate vice president before becoming president from 1968-1972. She discusses the expansion of career opportunities for women, shares her recollections of serving under President Susan White Perry, Vanderbilt University, and the decision to close Alpha Upsilon Chapter at Colby College, as well as the Executive Board's reaction to the recruitment of the first African American member by Delta Upsilon Chapter at Ohio Wesleyan University. Kathleen also speaks fondly of the Tri Deltas who served with her on Executive Board during her presidency, discusses the challenges of recruitment, membership selection, and discrimination in the 1960s, recounts the move of the Tri Delta Executive Office to Arlington, Texas, and recalls the 1970 Convention in Scottsdale, Arizona.
