Dear Tau Alumni and Kappa Sigma Parents,

We are excited to get everyone back for the fall, and have huge plans ahead! Following a historic inaugural season in the SEC, the Tau Chapter saw great success. We hope to build on our momentum following a great 2024-2025 school year.

The chapter is proud to announce that the Rush process for the fall has concluded, finishing with a strong group of 67 new pledges, the largest in chapter history. We are very excited to see each new member contribute to the continued success of the Tau Chapter.

Without your continued support, none of this success would be possible. We raised over $45,000 and we could not have achieved the results we did without your support. Our alumni and parents are the backbone of this fraternity, and we are beyond grateful to have your involvement. Thank you for everything you do!

Along with a great summer of Rush, the chapter is also pleased to announce the capital improvements to the property — automatic gate installation for both parking lots, as well as new digital door code locks for every room in the house. Both projects should be fully functional by the end of next week.

We would like to express our heartfelt gratitude to both the Texas Kappa Sigma Educational Foundation and the Parents’ Association for their support in funding these projects. Thank you for your guidance and assistance!

Another reminder that Parents’ Weekend and the Tau Trustee Reunion will be September 19 and 20. Please remember to register before the September 12 deadline, and we can’t wait to see everyone in Austin for a great weekend!
