Who are the men of Tau Kappa Epsilon?

Tau Kappa Epsilon is a brotherhood of men who support each other's mental, moral, and social development. Since its founding in 1899, more than 240,000 men of good character have become members. We currently operate Chapters and Colonies on 268 college campuses across the United States and Canada, which makes us the largest college social fraternity in the world.


The resources and atmosphere our fraternity has to offer help our members achieve their goals and satisfy the demands of college life. Members of TKE enjoy the benefits of these resources every day - they lead happy, fulfilling, and successful lives in college and continue this success after graduation. Our current active chapter consistently maintains a GPA well above the all men’s average. We have men pursuing degrees on full scholarship in nearly every major field of study including engineering, Pre-Medicine, Pre-Law, Business, Sports Administration, Education, and more. Recent graduates are currently or will soon begin graduate study in engineering, medicine, law, and business at schools such as U of L, Cornel, and Wake Forest.


TKE clearly has much to offer its members not only on the academic level, but also on personal, athletic, and social levels. We host philanthropy events, play several intramural sports, and participate in multiple events with other fraternities and sororities. We organize our own recreational brotherhood activities to ensure that we remain focused on the ideals of mental, moral, and social support that help all of us to meet the challenges of college life. Furthermore, many of us are involved in on-campus research projects, studied abroad programs, are active in the co-op program, and several campus professional organizations.


Our goal is not simply to participate in the world around us, but to excel together in all of our endeavors. Not only are we the largest of all 12 fraternities at the University of Louisville, TKE is consistently at the top. In the past year alone; we placed first in total community service hours, more than doubling any other fraternity; were named Greek Week champions for the second time in three years; and dominated the fraternity basketball league in route an undefeated championship season. Even when we do not win, we are always among the top.


TKE Fraternity is more than just a great college experience. We have a network of more than 200,000 alumni across the nation who serve as mentors and aid us in our job and internship searches. Notable alumni include: Ronald Reagan, 40th President of The United States; George Halas, Founder of the National Football League; Charles Whittaker, U.S. Supreme Court Justice; Robert Nardelli, CEO of The Home Depot; Howard Schultz, Chairmen of Starbuck Corporation; Conrad Hilton, Founder of Hilton Hotels; Charles Walgreen, Chairmen of Walgreen’s Drug Company; And many others such as, Phil Simms, Elvis Presley, Merv Griffin, and Terry Bradshaw.
