Founded on January 10th, 1899, Tau Kappa Epsilon is among the largest Social Greek fraternities in the world. Tau Kappa Epsilon strives to build better men for a better world throughout the remainder of one's lifetime, based not on one's wealth, rank, or honor, but on personal worth and character. The Xi-Theta chapter was chartered as a local affiliate of Tau Kappa Epsilon on June 5th, 1971, and continues a tradition of fraternal excellence to this very day. Tau Kappa Epsilon provides its members opportunities to develop leadership, character, teamwork, scholarship, service and brotherhood persisting beyond one's collegiate years - cultivating success socially and academically, all the while encouraging the embodiment of Love, Charity, and Esteem.
