Joplin Area Alumni Chapter
Not having an alumni base to support them Delta Pi Chapter fell on hard times in the early 1980’s. The chapter turned its’ charter back in to the National Headquarters in 1985 when membership dropped to an unsustainable level. In 1989 a group of students contacted an Alumni of Delta Pi and asked for assistance to re-charter Kappa Alpha at Missouri Southern State College. Kappa Alpha is the only Fraternity at MSSU to have a chartered Alumni Chapter in support of the undergraduates.
That alumnus contacted other Alumni to elicit support for the effort. The Alumni supported the effort and formed the Joplin Area Alumni Chapter for Kappa Alpha Order in the early 90's. With support for the alumni group Kappa Alpha Order national office agreed to re-colonize Delta Pi.
