Kappa Delta Rho (also known as "KDR") is a fraternity. The Nu Alpha chapter at Columbia was founded on May, 1 1982. The chapter is currently housed at 548 W. 114th St. It is known colloquially as the "basketball frat" because of the basketball team's membership in the house. Not all basketball players are brothers and roughly half of the brothers are not on the basketball team. Recently its membership has diversified to include members of the varsity golf, tennis, football and track teams as well as club athletes in rugby and sailing. The chapter is known on campus for their large dance parties and the predominately female-athlete crowd that their events attract. In 2010, the chapter was awarded the Most Improved Chapter award by the Inter-Greek Council.
