Leadership Academy Applications Due March 15

Tau Kappa Epsilon Fraternity has aimed to continue the tradition of the Charles R. Walgreen Jr. TKE Leadership Academy by providing attendees with the skills and tools necessary to build Better Men for a Better World. The National Founders, and their leadership styles, are shown as the prime examples to challenge the current process and inspire all members to have a shared vision for the future vitality of the Fraternity.

Through a sequenced and balanced blend of workshops, small group discussions, outdoor experiential activities and keynote speakers, each Frater will be touched at a personal level and self discover new boundaries mentally, morally and socially. The curriculum will take deeper looks at Scholarship, Character, Leadership, Teamwork, Service and Brotherhood. By thinking critically and rising to lead us into our future, each Leadership Academy Teke will walk away more focused, dedicated and having a new sense of the concept of fraternity.
