Today, Kappa Psi Pharmaceutical Fraternity has over 45,000 members,
75 collegiate chapters at colleges and universities throughout the
United States, and 42 graduate chapters in various cities and
states. Many men and women prominent in pharmaceutical circles, both
locally and nationally, are members of Kappa Psi. Thousands of Kappa
Psi members are actively serving in all areas of their chosen
professions: in teaching, research, colleges, industry, U.S. public
health service, the armed forces and government agencies, as well as
in hospital and community pharmacy. One will find Kappa Psi brothers
in every state and in almost every important city in the country as
well as foreign countries.
The Delta Gamma chapter of Kappa Psi
pharmaceutical fraternity in Auburn was installed in 1963.
Presently, there are over 120 brothers associated with Kappa Psi at
Auburn. Kappa Psi is highly involved in many social and service
activities.
Delta Gamma is proud its wide variety of
service projects which include health fairs, Habitat for Humanity,
sponsored birthday parties for Boykin Adult Day Care Center, and
Relay for Life. One of the largest social events is the Spring
Formal which is held with the Kappa Psi chapter from Samford
University. We have various social activities throughout the school
year including many themed socials, dinners, and annual trips to
province meetings located in Florida, Georgia, and Alabama.
Kappa Psi brothers enjoy the distinction of having attained
the highest GPA of any fraternity in Pharmacy School for the last
six years. Because Kappa Psi is a professional fraternity, all the
benefits of fraternal affiliation are made available which foster
opportunities for attainment of greater competency and achievement
within the profession of pharmacy. Members of a professional
fraternity usually find a closer relationship with faculty members,
alumni members, and practitioners. It is the objective of Kappa Psi
to foster a spirit of professionalism among its members and, through
its professional programs, supply the intellectual stimulus that is
so essential in pursuing college work in pharmacy. Being a
professional means being involved. Kappa Psi members are actively
involved in all facets of the School of Pharmacy, having
representatives in all major organizations including Student
Council, Phi Lambda Sigma, ASP, ASHP and Rho Chi.
Members of Kappa Psi are selected on the basis of
personal qualifications, and no person may be precluded from
membership because of race, creed, religious belief, or sex.
