T
he Epsilon Chapter of Tau Kappa Epsilon and Iowa State
University share a storied tradition dating back to 1915. With
more than 2,300 initiates, the Epsilon Chapter has influenced
the lives of numerous men, cultivating lasting friendships in the
process. Many of our best college memories can be traced back to our
Tau Kappa Epsilon experience.
From our founding to the present, our proud history speaks for
itself through high academic achievement and leadership within the
university. While many of our alumni have gone on to successful
and distinguished careers in business, engineering, technology, and
countless other endeavors, the common bond of our brotherhood
remains, along with our shared principles and values. Many of us can
trace the roots of our success to one place: 224 Ash Avenue.
rough TKE, we learned leadership, organizational, and social skills,
and the value of teamwork and character. ese traits have been integral
to our personal success and helped make us the men we are today.
Our Chapter House at 224 Ash Avenue is clearly the focus of
undergraduate life for Epsilon. It has been a home away from home
for hundreds of young men and a classroom where our brothers have
learned personal and professional development, obtained a sense of
community, and cultivated interests outside of the classroom. However,
if we wish for Epsilon to continue its strong presence on the Iowa State
campus, we must ensure that we are providing a safe, modern, and
competitive facility. Now is the appropriate time to secure our future.
