The Fraternity Coat of Arms combines the well known symbols of Kappa Kappa Gamma--the key, the Greek-letters, the pledge pin, the fleur-de-lis, the owl and the two blues. It also displays the head of Minerva, the Goddess of Wisdom.

The golden key was selected by the founders as the badge of Kappa Kappa Gamma. It has the letters KKG on the stem and Alpha Omega Omicron on the ward. On the reverse side of the key are engraved the member's initials, the Greek-letters of her chapter, and her date of initiation. The badge is worn strictly as an emblem of membership and only by initiated members.

The fleur-de-lis was chosen as the Fraternity flower because of its general dignity, stateliness and grace, and because it combines the two blues of Kappa Kappa Gamma in one flower. The iris is typically used as a substitution.

The colors of the Kappa are light blue and dark blue. They have often been described as "blue of sky and sea" in Kappa songs and verse.

The owl is a symbol of Kappa because it is the bird of wisdom.

The pledge pin is a Delta of dark blue enclosing a light blue Sigma. It is to be worn only by a woman who has been pledged to membership in Kappa Kappa Gamma, and is returned to the chapter at the time of initiation.
