Tau Kappa Epsilon Fraternity is a newer fraternity on UNCW’s campus. While being recolonized in 2005, TKE is one of the most recognized and respected organizations on campus. We strive to serve the school and community with dedicated service and leadership. In only 4 years on the campus, we have already won the Bradley Cup for the best Fraternity on campus 2 times (2006-2007 & 2008-2009) and we have also been awarded other honors such as excellence in Philanthropic Efforts as well as our overall chapter development..

Our success is no coincidence. We value developing and displaying leadership, scholarship and brotherhood. Since our founding, we have had brothers who have been:
Orientation Leaders
The 2008 Homecoming King
President, Lectures, and Concert Chair for the Association of Campus Entertainment.
Seahawk Links
Senior Class President for the Student Government Association
Fraternity and Sorority Life Representative for the Student Government Association
Greek “Man Of The Year” (Three times in a row!)
Awarded the Mr. Greek Award
InterFraternity Council Vice President of Recruitment
Campus Life staff
Up ‘til Dawn Executive Board Members
TKE National employees and volunteers
…as well as other various leadership and on-going respectable positions on campus

T.K.E. is a fraternity established in order to aid men in their mental, moral, and social development throughout their lifetime.. In order to do just that, Tau Kappa Epsilon finds it important to focus on building 6 standards within our bond of brothers which are: Scholarship, Character, Leadership, Teamwork, Service, and Brotherhood, The only fraternity founded prior to 1920 with no clause in their by-laws to discriminate any potential member by race, sexual orientation, or creed, we accept and celebrate diversity. Our members pride their selves in being a diverse bond of brothers who are there for each other and come together for the betterment of the UNCW Community as well as Wilmington community alike.

“Since Joining TKE only last year, I have grown so much. While coming to college, I had heard that fraternity life may distract you from your education and career, and I have found that TKE does the opposite. Since joining the brotherhood I have met a great network of brothers who have helped me with schoolwork, guided me with experience, provided me with many job opportunities and etc. Joining T.K.E. was the best decision I have ever made.” –Jacob Roed, MX 244
