Twelve women educators in Austin , Texas , founded the Delta Kappa Gamma Society in 1929. Texas assumed the designation of Alpha State . On October 27, 1934, North Carolina became the seventh state to join the organization and thus was given the seventh letter of the Greek Alphabet, Eta (pronounced a-ta). North Carolina membership is over 6,000 with 107 NC DKG Chapters.
NC DKG is divided into 11 regions. Regional Directors, appointed by the state president, serve as a link between the chapter and the state; they are elected on the same schedule as chapter presidents. NC DKG is within the Southeast Region of The Delta Kappa Gamma Society International.
NC DKG holds a state convention each spring to transact business, to conduct workshops and to award scholarships.
NC DKG purchased a headquarters building in the spring of 1998. NC DKG's headquarters is located at 805 North Carolina Highway 42 near Asheboro . The building provides adequate storage and work space, as well as a space for meetings and other appropriate activities.
