"The Times" When Epsilon Kappa Was Chartered
The Chapter Charter
Epsilon Kappa received its name because of its sequential position among Texas chapters. The first 24 chapters received a single Greek letter name, in alphabetical order; the next 24 chapters comprised the “Alpha family,” whose names all had Alpha as the first part of their title, and one of the 24 letters as the second half. Epsilon Kappa belongs to the 5th “family” the “Epsilon family” and is the 10th, or Kappa, member of that “family”.
