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.
