What is Kappa Kappa Psi?
Kappa Kappa Psi operates primarily as a
student service and leadership recognition society
whose chief aim is to
assist the Director of Bands in developing the leadership and enthusiasm
that is required of
his/her band. Our goals are to provide the band not only with
organized
and concentrated service activities, but to give our
membership valid and wholesome
experiences in
organization, leadership and social contracts. The honorary nature
of
membership is based on our
premise that "it is an honor to be selected to serve" this band,
its department of music,
its sponsoring institution, and the cause of band music in the nation's
colleges and universities.
Chapter responsibilities include numerous concentrated service projects as well as providing the intangible items of morale, spirit, enthusiasm, atmosphere, and attitude within the band. As noted in the preamble of our Constitution and as charged in much of our Ritual, the cultivation and maintenance of an agreeable and enthusiastic attitude is mandatory for |
|
all our members, and this
serves to foster the wholesome and cooperative spirit that each
Director of Bands wants for their band.
Membership in Kappa Kappa Psi thus becomes
an educational and service activity as well
as a social one. And it
is this kind of activity that enriches the band student's life and
sharpens an
appreciation for both the best in Music and what it takes to achieve it. It is
to this
end that our National Fraternity is dedicated, and we cordially invite your
participation
in this effort.
