Kappa Epsilon (original) (raw)

Kappa Epsilon (ΚΕ) is an American professional pharmacy fraternity founded by Zada M. Cooper on May 13, 1921. It was founded with the purpose of uniting female pharmacy students in an era when women were a minority in the profession. Today, KE has 43 collegiate chapters and 10 alumni chapters. Over 20,000 women and men have been initiated into ΚΕ since its founding. Every two years, the fraternity holds a convention where national officers are elected and collegiate and alumni members can network. The official colors of Kappa Epsilon are only Red and White.
