At the time, the sole chapter was the one at Howard University. The young women who comprised the chapter decided not to carry the legacy that had been passed to them, but instead planned drastic changes that would leave no trace of the sorority the founders had carefully and lovingly crafted just a few years prior. One of the founders who worked on the campus intervened and the young women of the chapter decided to leave and establish their own sorority, Delta Sigma Theta. Alpha Kappa Alpha re-gained her membership on campus and soon incorporated so that her legacy would be passed down intact. Having learned a lesson from their own founding, Delta Sigma Theta incorporated soon after.
