Sibylla & Kenneth Peters-Alpha Delta Kappa Scholarship Undergraduate

Three local chapters of Alpha Delta Kappa, an international honor sorority for women educators, established a scholarship to honor the memory of long-timed educator Sibylla Barton Peters and her husband Kenneth Peters. Members of Alpha Beta, Alpha Phi and Nu chapters of Alpha Delta Kappa created the endowment to provide support for outstanding students in the teacher education program at Arkansas State. Mrs. Peters was instrumental in chartering Arkansas Nu chapter in 1956 and served as its first president. Mr. Peters was a charter member of the men’s division of Alpha Delta Kappa, organized in 1961, and served as national president in 1971.
