Kate Holloway (born 13 May) is an Alumna of the Gamma Mu Chapter (ΓΜ 1) at Central Michigan University.

Early Fraternity Life and Career

Kate initially found out about Phi Sigma Pi in the Fall of 1993 from Karen Lessnau at Eastern Michigan University. She was a sophomore at EMU. Kate attended a few rush nights in the Winter of 1994, became a pledge of the Delta class, and was inducted on March 26, 1994 into the Alpha Phi Chapter.

Kate transferred to Central Michigan University (CMU) in January 1995. CMU did not have a chapter of Phi Sigma Pi, so in the Fall of 1995, she decided to go Greek and joined Alpha Gamma Delta. Social Greek life was not what Kate was looking for, so in the Spring and Summer of 1996, Kate contacted Phi Sigma Pi's National Headquarters about starting a chapter of Phi Sigma Pi at CMU. Kate then got the go ahead in Summer 1996 to proceed with chartering the Gamma Mu Chapter. In August 1996, a handful of Alpha Phi Brothers came up to CMU and to help introduce Phi Sigma Pi to the campus. Gamma Mu Chapter was founded by Kate on October 15, 1996.
