Owning a permanent, fraternal home for TKE at Middle Tennessee State University has been a dream shared by nearly every Frater initiated into our Bond at the Sigma Omicron Chapter of Tau Kappa Epsilon. Buying a house for the Sigma Omicron chapter of Tau Kappa Epsilon will provide a stable environment and permanent home for our Chapter that works to enhance student life and provide chapter members with a well-rounded college experience. The chapter house will provide members with the opportunity to live in a Fraternal environment that promotes brotherhood while supporting the member’s academic and social pursuits.

Achieving this objective, however, will require a significant level of commitment from both the collegiate and alumni members of the chapter. Sigma Omicron has already taken several significant and necessary steps towards the adoption and implementation of a formal housing capital campaign. Some of these critical steps include:

  • The development of an active alumni Board of Trustees that conducts regular meetings and supervises chapter and corporate finances;
  • The creation and chartering of an active Sigma Omicron Alumni Association that conducts regular alumni events and meetings;
  • Funding a permanently endowed scholarship fund for the collegiate chapter through the TKE Educational Foundation;
  • Locating and reconnecting with our lost alumni through regular email and print communications;
  • Securing a Chapter Advisor and Faculty Advisor for the collegiate chapter;
  • Creation of a basic alumni dues and donor program, supervised and coordinated by the Alumni Association.

During the next few years, the Sigma Omicron alumni leadership team will continue to work with the collegiate chapter in providing support, advisement, financial supervision, and educational opportunities. To move forward on our plan, the collegiate chapter will need to continue to increase in membership, with an objective of maintaining a chapter size of approximately 40+ men.

We will also need to continue the process of raising funds. The Building Brotherhood fund, which is under the control of the Board of Trustees, will play an important role in providing the initial amount needed to purchase the property. Once the property is owned by our Chapter, we will continue our raising funds for other substantial projects, which will primarily offset the costs of property renovation, expansion and upkeep.

While contributions to this fund are not tax-deductible under current IRS provisions, all funds are carefully supervised, managed, and expended only for those necessary projects related to planning for our future housing project.

For us to move forward, we need your financial support. Your gift will help move us one step closer to realizing our dream of a permanent fraternal home for Sigma Omicron at Middle Tennessee State University.

Your donation can serve as the catalyst that lays the first “brick” in building a stronger TKE Fraternity at MTSU. During the “Building Brotherhood” Campaign, your donation of $100 or more will reserve a space for you to be permanently recognized in the Sigma Omicron Chapter House, recognizing those who gave the gift of support in the housing fund’s first two years of success.

Another great way to give to The Sigma Omicron Housing Fund is by working with your company’s matching gift program. Many businesses offer matching gifts for employees. Your business can help add to the growth of the Sigma Omicron chapter, by donating to the House Fund. A combined donation of $100 or more will also reserve a space for your company name and your name to be permanently located in the Sigma Omicron house, recognizing individuals and organizations who gave the gift of support in the housing fund’s first year of success.

Please browse the information below. We have provided you with an online donation form or one in PDF format for your convenience. We urge you to fill out and send in your donation form, so you can take part in the benefits of the “Building Brotherhood” Campaign.
