Through outstanding leadership, the Alpha Kappa chapter continuously ranks among the top AGR fraternities in the United States. AGR has been “making better men” for more than 100 years. Members of AGR get the best of both worlds because we are a social and professional fraternity. We make sure to have a great time, but grades and character development are also at the top of our list. In AGR, each member joins right away with the same rights and responsibilities as any other brother in the chapter.

Outside of class, AGR participates in Homecoming and many other philanthropy events. In recent years, the AGR Alpha Kappa chapter has won first place in Homecoming in four out of the past six years.

Our largest philanthropy event is called Water Wars where we donate on average $10,000 to St. Jude’s. One of the huge traditions that the Alpha Kappa chapter holds is being in charge of Smokey, the mascot for the University of Tennessee. Members of our AGR chapter have the privilege to run him across the field on game days.

At the end of each spring semester, we put on a special event called Parent-Founder’s Day where we hand out over $50,000 worth of scholarships to our members that are funded by our amazing alumni.
