Xi Kappa Inc. (Greek, Ancient (to 1453);: ΞΚ, also known as XK) is established as the first Asian-interest fraternity in the Southeast United States. Xi Kappa has grown to represent 4 collegiate schools in the U.S.

History

The Beginning

The “Xi Kappa” tradition was created out of a desire for a difference within the Southern philosophy of “Dixie.” Xi Kappa Founder, Jason Dunn joined forces with 8 other Asian students at the University of Georgia in 1997, to start a Greek-based organization for Asian students in the Southeast. Together, the “Xi Kappa Asian-Interest Fraternity”, was formed.[1]
