The Kappa Alpha Society (ÊÁ) is the oldest college fraternity in the North America. It was formed at Union College in Schenectady, New York on November 26, 1825 by a group of college students. Kappa Alpha was the first to combine aspects of secret Greek-letter societies, literary societies and formalized student social groups and is thus considered the first modern fraternity. Kappa Alpha is also the oldest collegiate secret society still in existence.

The Marine Core of the greek society. They are the best at everything they do. Not to be trifled with. They have set the standard for all men since March 1st, 1868. They produce some of the worlds top individuals such as Tim Mcgraw, Kris Kristofferson, Gus Frerrote, Jeff Taylor, Nolan Bushnell, Bud Cramer, Kyle Orten, Bobby Bowden and Gino Torretta. No group of Individuals hold themselves to a higher standard then the men of Pi Kappa Alpha. Become a Pike, or be Beaten by one.

A fraternity founded in 1868. This brotherhood organization usually conisists of ex atheletes, or those who did not actually make the intercollegiate team. Favorite pastimes include the gym, back waxing, brotherhood tanning events, and looking down upon other organizations.
I joined Pi Kappa Alpha because I love the gym, pretending to be huge, and acting like I am good at athletics.

An elite group of people. When their talents are put together, they can take over the world. They live their lives with humor and class. Dancing, music, and comedy are key elements of these special creatures. They all have their own individual talents and skills, which coincidentally coincide with that of the others of the group.

A group of the most fabulous people on the planet. Highest GPA out of all greek organizations on campus (3.7) Each one is beautiful, talented, and has their head on straight. If a Theta lands a rich husband, kudos to her. It's because he realizes what he has.
