Chapter Facts
The 236th chapter of Kappa Sigma, Mu-Eta, was chartered at the University of Louisville. Formerly known as Phi Omega Phi, a local fraternity, the chapter formally joined the rank of the Star and Crescents on November 5th, 1983. Fourteen men ushered in a new era on this campus. They are: Stephen Matthew Vest, Barry Anthony Royalty, Charles Aurthor Ballard, William Kelly Burke, Timothy Todd Clark, Donald Ross Price, William Edward Long, Todd Kingsley Bolus, Robert Jamey Doyle, John Charles Sternberg, Kimberly Alan Clark, Brian Dean Downs, and Timothy Charles White. One of the founders of the chapter did not participate in the first initiation. However, on the 10th anniversary of the chapter – November 5th, 1993, Paul Wesley Lewis was made an honorary initiate of the chapter and at long last, a Kappa Sigma. Over the course of her history, the chapter has initiated over 250 men thus far. Mu-Eta Brothers have gone on to become great leaders at the University, in the Fraternity, and in the community including Interfraternity Council Presidents, Student Government and Student Council Presidents, District Grand Masters, Assistant District Grand Masters, Masters of the Ritual, and Undergraduate Advisory Committee Members.
