Description

Our Local History

The Scorpion TKE story began in the year 1907 when Kappa Psi Fraternity was founded. The fraternity flourished for many years and on May 24th, 1923 affiliatated with Tau Kappa Epsilon as the Sigma Chapter. During the same time in history, Scorpion Fraternity was founded in 1927 by Walter G. Seeley. In the chaotic years that was the great depression, Sigma Chapter of TKE disbanded. In 1940, TKE returned to Cornell in the form of Scorpion TKE, a merger of Scorpion Fraternity and Sigma Chapter of TKE. Finally, in 1941, Sigma Phi Sigma Fraternity also merged with Scorpion TKE.

Folklore

As told by Ezekiel Knispel, son of Haran, daughter of Zidonias and Nehemiah Schellenbarger, half-cousin of Zadok, son of Hank and Bev.

AND LO, it came to pass that in the sacred year 1907 the Lord lifted up his countenance upon a group of nine Cornell students, and said, "Men, ye have been chosen amongst many to proclaim the coming of my cherished abode." It was decreed that these students should band together in one common bond, and thus began Kappa Psi Fraternity at Cornell.
