Founded in 1865, Kappa Alpha Order is built on the values of reverence, gentility, knowledge, leadership, brotherhood, and excellence. The Tau Chapter at Wake Forest, established in 1881, continues this tradition by helping men grow as leaders, serve their communities, and support one another. KA challenges its members to live as modern gentlemen—guided by a strong moral compass and committed to making a positive impact on campus and beyond.
