Theta Xi
Fraternity was founded at
Rensselaer Polytechnic
Institute as a social
fraternity for people
pursuing the study of
engineering. On April 9,
1926, Theta Xi became a
general college fraternity
establishing chapters at
non-technical schools. Today
there are 74 chapters and 3
colonies located at colleges
and universities across the
nation. The Kappa chapter
was founded here at
Rose-Hulman on March 30,
1907. The chapter house is
presently located at 902
South Sixth Street, and has
a capacity of 24 brothers.
The location allows each
brother a change of pace
from the academic atmosphere
and provides him with a
homelike atmosphere. Each
brother is given a chance to
develop his own
individuality while
contributing to the group's
benefit. Also, he learns to
live and work with many
different people. |
