Delta Kappa Epsilon has had a 100-year history at Stanford. We have billionaire alumni. Five US Presidents have been Dekes, including the current one. Will you ever hang out with any of them? Doubtful. Will you drink the same beer they drank? If you want. Will you drink as much beer as they drank? Probably not.
We have a high GPA. Will that make you any smarter? We have great girlfriends. Are we going to let them sleep with you? The truth is, every fraternity makes boasts like these; if you really care about them, don't rush DKE. Because even though they are true, they don't define our experience as a fraternity.
What is DKE? We are a group of guys who like to have a good time. We study, drink (or not), play sports, meet girls, love our friends, and hate our enemies. As a fraternity we take trips to Tijuana, Tahoe, and Vegas. We meet with all of our alumni over extravagant dinners. We are currently unhoused and we keep a full bar. We spend time with sororities at Stanford and elsewhere.
Why rush DKE? Rush DKE because you want to have fun. Rush DKE because you make enjoying life a priority. Why did WE rush DKE? Some of us were best friends freshman year, and wanted to solidify friendship into brotherhood. A few of us wanted free food at rush and liked what we saw. Others wanted to experience fraternal mystery and tradition.
Come smash a car, smoke a cigar and see if DKE might be for you. |
