Scholarships & Sweetheart

Do you know the next TKE International Sweetheart?

Nominations for the 2012 TKE International Sweetheart are now being accepted. Only 56 women have received this high honor and you can add your sweetheart to this select group by applying today. This woman will represent the organization at conferences, receive a scholarship, and be recognized by media, school officials and more.

The 2009 International Sweetheart Amanda Klaus, representing Kappa-Kappa Chapter at Monmouth University, said her experience has been life-changing. "It was great to see all of the Tekes at Conclave and work with them during the service event. They really stepped up, confirming my feelings about how wonderful these men are day in and day out."

The deadline to get your nominations in is Thursday, March 1, 2012. The sweetheart is selected annually by online voting at the TKE website and votes compiled from chapters in the traditional form sent. Nominees are chosen based on Grade Point Average (GPA), honors and awards of distinction, extra-curricular activities, community service and involvement with the local TKE chapter. The Sweetheart is awarded a scholarship from the TKE Educational Foundation.

For more information, please visit tke.org and fill out the application. Entries can be sent to Tau Kappa Epsilon Fraternity, Attn: Katie Sayre, 7439 Woodland Drive, Indianapolis, IN 46278. For the complete list of materials and requirements, please visit the Sweetheart Page on tke.org. If you have more questions, email us.
