About Us
What is a Fraternity?
A fraternity is an association of men, selected in their college days by a democratic process, because of their adherence to common ideals and aspirations. Out of their association arises a personal relationship which makes them unselfishly seek to advance on another in the arts of life and to add, to the formal instruction of the college curriculum, the culture, and the character which men acquire by contact with great personalities, or when admitted to partnership in great traditions.
A fraternity, too is of such character that after men have left college they delight to renew their own youth by continued association with it and to bring their richest experiences back to the younger generation in part payment of the debt they feel themselves to owe to the fraternity for what is given them in their formative years.
-Newton D. Baker, Johns Hopkins University-1892
What is Kappa Chi?
Kappa Chi is a brotherhood of men practicing Christian principles. We do all things a college guy would want to do. We hang out, play sports, and have parties. Through all these things we strive to glorify God. We have house parties, we go camping, and just hang out. If you are looking forward to having fun in college and glorify God while doing it, then Kappa Chi is the place for you.
