Delta Kappa Epsilon truly embodies our motto of being “Gentleman, Scholars, and Jolly Good Fellows.” We believe that being a gentleman is one of the most important things a man can become. Treating others with respect, having confidence in yourself, and being courteous in any situation we may face, is how we build ourselves as gentlemen. We also pride ourselves in academics, where we have joint study sessions, helpful class resources, and high academic standards. Being the best person you can be not only helps the chapter succeed, but it empowers our community and university.
As a smaller chapter, we pride ourselves on our brotherhood; it is the driving force behind everything we do. Regardless of the differences between us, we come together as one fraternity in order to stick to our main goals. At the end of our experience, we become better men who are prepared for the next chapter in our lives.
Overall, Delta Kappa Epsilon at UT is a diverse group of gentlemen that come together to be bonded for life. We represent ourselves, our families, our fraternity, and our university to the best of our abilities. You’ll see us having fun, studying, and being involved in the community, but no matter where you see us, we’ll always be bettering ourselves by becoming gentlemen, scholars, and jolly good fellows.
