Rho Kappa was founded in 2014 and was named after Linden resident John Russell Wheeler. Our name, RHO KAPPA, is taken from two words Semitic origin. RHO is derived from “resh” meaning “head” and KAPPA is derived from “kapf” which means “palm of the hand.” Both these terms symbolize our firm belief that knowledge without service is useless. Members of Rho Kappa are encouraged to pursue a deeper and more comprehensive understanding of all the disciplines under the Social Studies umbrella. Rho Kappa members will be working throughout the year to learn more about the history of Linden and will work to bring that knowledge to the larger community.
