The name, Rho Kappa, is taken from two words of Semitic origin. Rho is derived from “resh” meaning “head” and Kappa is derived from “kapf” which means “palm of the hand.” Both of these terms symbolize our firm belief that “knowledge without service is useless.” The principal purpose of Rho Kappa is to stimulate a deeper and more comprehensive understanding of all the academic disciplines comprising the social studies curriculum.

At Rho Kappa, the individual chapter service program must be of a civic nature. IHA’s Civic Service Project is working with the State of New Jersey’s Palisades Park Service, the Bergen County Historical Society, and the Women’s Club of Englewood to adopt the Women’s Federation Monument located in the Palisades State Park.
