Abstract The Tau Kappa Epsilon collection documents the activities of the Omega Chapter of Tau Kappa Epsilon at Albion College. Tau Kappa Epsilon, also refered to as TKE, was founded at Indiana Wesleyan University in 1899. TKE was established at Albion College in 1926. The collection is arranged into two series: Alumni, and Outreach and Membership. Records date from 1926-2017 with the bulk of the records dating from 1926-1960. Preferred Citation note [Item], [Folder], [Box], [Collection Number and Title], Archives and Special Collections,Stockwell-Mudd Library, Albion College. Albion, MI. - Page 3 - Tau Kappa Epsilon collection C.MSS.0122 Biographical/Historical note Tau Kappa Epsilon also known as TKE was founded at Illinois Wesleyan University in 1899 by five men based on the principles of love, charity and esteem. The 1899 founding date makes the fraternity younger than most. After an ambitious and successful post-World War II expansion plan, TKE established itself on campuses nationwide and quickly became the world's largest fraternity. The Omega Chapter of Tau Kappa Epsilon grew out of a previous student society, in this case the Zetalethian literary society. There were five fraternities already established on campus, but the Zetalethians sought the principles and anti-exclusion laws of TKE. The Omega Chapter was established on December 29, 1926. Chapters are listed chronologically by Greek letters; Alpha was the first chapter, Beta was the second. This means that the Omega Chapter was the 24th because Omega is the 24th and final letter of the Greek alphabet. Subsequent chapters were named Alpha-Alpha, Alpha-Beta, etc. The Omega Chapter of Tau Kappa Epsilon grew significantly during its years at Albion, living in several different houses in the college area until on-campus housing was mandated in the late 1960s. The Omega Chapter of Tau Kappa Epsilon is still active on campus today. Scope and Contents note The Tau Kappa Epsilon collection is divided into two series, and documents information related to Alumni, and Outreach and Membership. The Alumni series includes information related to individual alumni of the Omega Chapter of Tau Kappa Epsilon, issues of an alumni newsletter, and correspondence. The Outreach and Membership series contains clippings, ephemra, negatives, fraternity paddles, photographs and a poster. It also contains a series of surveys taken out by members of Tau Kappa Epsilon. The items are arranged by scroll number (sometimes referred to as an Omega Number by the Brothers of the organization), a chronological number that each Brother gains when he is initiated to the fraternity. For example, the holder of scroll number 50 was the 50th man initiated. The surveys contain basic information like name, address, date pledged, date initiated, and graduation year. There are also more specific sections, such as positions held in the fraternity, activities participated in and out of the fraternity, employment, family members, and a space for a photograph. The collection is fairly full with nearly all of the first 1200 scroll numbers present. However, large gaps begin thereafter and the collection quickly ends. Records date from 1926-2017 with the bulk of the materials dating from 1926-1960. - Page 4 - Tau Kappa Epsilon collection C.MSS.0122 Administrative Information Publication Information Albion College Archives and Special Collections 2019 July 10 Conditions Governing Access note This collection is open for research.

TAU KAPPA EPSILON LEARN ABOUT JOINING THE FRATERNITY FOR LIFE what is expected of me? OPPORTUNITIES FOR GETTING AND STAYING INVOLVED BECOMING AN HONORARY INITIATE WELCOME TO TAU KAPPA EPSILON We would like to take this opportunity to thank you for considering joining our beloved Fraternity. We are very proud of the legacy of Tau Kappa Epsilon, a history of more than 120 years, almost 500 different campuses and over a quarter million men. More than 7,000 men have joined as an honorary initiate rather than as a collegiate member. Many of these members have remained active as volunteers and some have gone on to shape the history of our Fraternity. We are honored that you would consider joining Tau Kappa Epsilon. While the majority of our members join an active chapter as collegiates, honorary initiates join later in their lives, regardless of whether they have a college degree. These men typically join because of a relationship they have with a chapter, with individual members or with the International Headquarters. In Tau Kappa Epsilon, we believe that the Fraternity experience does not end at graduation, but in fact is just beginning. Joining as an honorary initiate, you still have many opportunities to benefit from and share in the Fraternity: chapter-based and area-based alumni association, leadership programs, volunteer roles, networking, professional development and more. Our mission is to “aid men in their mental, moral and social development for life.” You can share your experience with the next generation of young TKE leaders and continue to grow personally and professionally as part of our brotherhood.
