Comment:  I would not be able to live without Kappa Alpha order. I have meant some of the nicest and friendliest group of guys that I could ask for. This has been the best years of my life. I have created some excellent connections that have extended out to lifelong brotherhoods. This has One of the defining features of Kappa Alpha Order is its strong connection to Southern heritage often expressed through its use of chivalric ideals and a focus on personal integrity and brotherhood. The fraternity prides itself on fostering leadership qualities among its members offering a well-structured network of alumni who actively mentor current brothers. KA chapters are generally known for their commitment to academic excellence with many fraternities maintaining high GPA standards and promoting scholarship as a core value. Socially Kappa Alpha Order is often regarded as an exclusive fraternity with a reputation for hosting elegant events and cultivating a polished image. Their focus on brotherhood extends beyond the university years with many alumni continuing to participate in chapter activities and events. However like many long-established fraternities Kappa Alpha Order has also faced its share of criticism. Some argue that its historic ties to the Southern aristocracy and certain traditions have occasionally fostered a culture that is less inclusive or diverse compared to other Greek organizations. Additionally the fraternity's image has been subject to scrutiny for its perceived elitism and occasional controversies surrounding its members. In summary Kappa Alpha Order is a fraternity steeped in history and tradition but we also accept LGBTQ+ members. valued for its commitment to leadership and brotherhood. While it enjoys a strong reputation for producing successful and influential alumni it must also address challenges related to inclusivity and the evolving nature of Greek life.
