| Welcome to the Gamma Kappa Chapter of Theta Xi Fraternity's Website! |
|
We're not a fraternity at UIC, we are the UIC Fraternity!
The Gamma Kappa Chapter of Theta Xi Fraternity, located at the The University of Illinois at Chicago (UIC), was chartered on March 16, 1991 by 37 founding fathers. The initiation of the Gamma Kappa's founding fathers was conducted by the former Alpha Gamma Chapter at the Illinois Institute of Technology. Gamma Kappa is the only remaining Theta Xi Chapter in the ChicagoLand area and we are still going strong! Since its chartering, Theta Xi has initiated 199 men at UIC and will break the 200 mark this upcoming Fall 2008 Semester.

UIC has a diverse student body and Theta Xi has a rich history in initiating a diverse group of men from all backgrounds and scholastic levels from that student body. New members, whether they be Freshmen, Seniors or transfer students are always welcome to come meet the Brothers and see if Theta Xi is the right fit for them. Our diversity also spans the full spectrum of Majors available at UIC.
