Where did the tau'olunga come from?
The Tongan Tau'olunga originated from Samoa.
Samoan dance: "Taualuga" (pronounced, Tow-uh-loong-uh) literally translates into "Finale" or "Last dance to top it off." But the Taualuga is actually the last part that men put on a house or a "Fale" (pronounced fah-leh). So you can see the symbolism there.
Anyways, I was talking to my aunty (She being Tongan...and honest) and she said in ancient times when Tongan Kings would visit Samoa, the Samoan Kings/Chiefs' daughters would come out to perform a dance for their guests (which was the Taualuga). The Tongan Kings adored it and thought it was one of the most beautiful dances throughout Polynesia. Hence, they adapted it to their culture calling it "Tau'olunga" which is very similar to "Taualuga."
Now I don't even think the word "Tau'olunga" means anything but it is merely a word. I ask Tongan people what it means and some say it doesn't really mean anything....it's just the name of the dance. But that's also one reason why Ithink it originated from Samoa because the Samoan Taualuga has a meaning to it and the Tongan Tau'olunga does not.

Is Θηρόποσα Χείρ Theta Chi's secret word?
No. That is greek for "An Assisting Hand" which is Theta Chi's motto. It is not secret.
One way to answer the question asked is: It is the secret words that comprise the process and form of formal Kappa Sigma Chapter meetings, pledging ceremonies, initiations, and the like.
Another way to answer the question is: It is an actual written book that describes how each of the above mentioned rituals is to be performed. The ritual book also includes the fraternity's explanation of their partly rather fancifully imagined and partlyctual history, plus an explanation of all their symbols, crests, etc.. Notably, the ritual book leaves out many secret pass phrases, descriptions of secret hand signals and handshakes of recognition, and a rather crude cryptographic method for passing secret hand-written messages. Those are meant by the fraternity's members to be passed down as an oral tradition only, in case someone were to eventually get their hands on an actual copy of the written ritual book.
In mid-2008, someone - apparently an actual Kappa Sigma member - did photograph the secret ritual book and published the photos as a .pdf file on the internet.
Note that the person who originally made the .pdf document took the time to add digital text annotations explaining and clarifying the oral traditions as well. As I have tried it myself, not enough is given to prove myself as a member.
Side Note: Lawyers for Kappa Sigma have attempted to use the digital millennium copyright act to halt distribution of the Kappa Sigma ritual, claiming that it is a copyrighted work, even though Kappa Sigma never bothered to register the copyright (registration of copyright is not required to prove copyright in a work, but it IS a legal requirement prior to initiating any legal action for enforcement of copyright rights.). In many cases (such as Google, Ask, Digg, etc.) the lawyers have been successful in panicking service providers into taking down their links. Others, such as Wikileaks, have stood firm, citing the U.S. copyright law "fair use" exemption for educational purposes.

How do you join a sorority at Yale?
The three Greek sororities of Yale (Kappa Kappa Gamma, Kappa Alpha Theta, and Pi Beta Phi) all do Spring recruitment. Girls who are interested must sign up for formal recruitment through the Panhellenic Council and must rush all three sororities at once. During Rush Week, all girls in recruitment will attend a party thrown by each sorority the first night. Then, girls will be sent invites to return for the Philanthropy and Preference parties, which she must attend if she wishes to continue rushing this sorority. Following the final party, if a girl was invited to more than one, she must indicate her preference. Finally, on Bid Day, girls chosen by each sorority will be issued a Bid which she can choose to accept or decline.
