National Fraternity Commends Tau’s Hard Work at Conclave
After Year of Reflection, Undergraduates Move Forward
t is with great pleasure that I announce to you that Kappa Sigma’s
Tau Chapter has been officially removed from any probations or
sanctions. This is a result of almost a full year of hard work and dedicated
efforts to get the Chapter back in good standing with the National Fraternity.
I
One year ago, due to improper use of alcohol, our Chapter was given a
trusteeship period with a year-long alcohol sanction. After much reflection and discussion, we were able to rewrite and restructure how we conduct many of our Chapter programs.
The current officer board amended our bylaws and rewrote our scholarship, philanthropy, alumni, ritual, pledgeship, and risk management programs so that they now comply with our national insurance policy
requirements.
This was a long, arduous process, but one we believe will serve us better in the future. We are satisfied in the belief that we’ve done a great job
in changing the culture of our Chapter for the best.
Not only did we learn a lot from other chapters around the country, we
were able to share much good advice with the chapters that have been
struggling with issues that Tau has dealt with over the past decade. We
were commended for our contributions and were given a plaque recognizing our Chapter as the 10th best Kappa Sigma pledge class in the nation.
Friday afternoon, we met with the Supreme Executive Committee. They
commended our hard work and told us they believe we have the potential to be the number one chapter in the nation. To our surprise, we got
a standing ovation from the entire audience! It was a truly gratifying
moment for all of us.
As the new school year approaches, I’ve never been so excited to be a
part of an organization such as Kappa Sigma. Our new Lodge and the
grounds upgrades give us one of the best facilities on campus. We are
shooting for a pledge class of over 40 young gentlemen who could not be more excited to carry the
torch. I fully believe that Tau is at the peak of its 127
years and it will only get better. In late July, Ernest Hotze ’08, Kevin Redmon ’10, and I attended the
68th Biennial Kappa Sigma Conclave in Las Vegas, Nevada. Unsure of
how the National Chapter would receive us due to our probationary status, we took a very humble approach and listened carefully to the advice
we were given in the breakout sessions.

A LITTLE SISTER TO ALL
TAU KAPPA SIGS MAKES
BIG IMPACT TO CAMPAIGN
N
ancy Tipton’s brother, Jim Tipton ’71, was a loyal Kappa Sig
brother who passed away about 10 years ago. Several of his
pledge brothers put together a naming opportunity for him in the new
Chapter House to honor Jim along with three other Tau brothers who
also passed on early. Nancy made a nice contribution to the campaign
and rallied many of Jim’s friends who were not Kappa Sigs to donate
also. Nancy wrote a compelling letter to Jim’s pledge brothers to spur
their giving in his honor at the beginning of the campaign. Portions of
her letter are below.
Several weeks ago, I learned about the fundraising drive for the construction of a new Kappa Sigma house at UT and I’ve been thinking of
how best to support the effort and get involved. As you may remember,
I was not only Jimmy’s little sister, but a Little Sister of the Star and
Crescent and, like Jimmy, loved the Kappa Sigs.
Jimmy was a member of one of the last pledge classes to occupy the
West 19th Street house and was devastated to see the oldest fraternity
house west of the Mississippi River turned into a parking lot. I know that
Jim would be thrilled about the new Chapter House and Lodge and recognize its importance to the future of Kappa Sigma on the University of
Texas campus. I also know that he would want me to participate in any
way I can in order to help the Tau Chapter reach its campaign goal.
The memories Jimmy made during his student years at the University
were the dearest to him of all. He was proud to be a member of one of
the first three fraternities on the UT campus and prouder still to represent Kappa Sigma as a Texas Cowboy.
Unfortunately, Jimmy was not the only member of the 1970 pledge class
to die too young; Billy Tuck ’71, Bobby Doherty ’71, and Robbie
Herring ’71 were also taken too soon. In an effort to make a significant
contribution to the new house in memory of these fine Kappa Sig men,
I am asking for your support in the Tau house campaign.

The Willingham Case, the award-winning documentary Joe co-directed with Steve Mims, is described

investigation and political drama. We set out to make
a film that sticks to the facts of the original event and
the scientific evidence surrounding the case.” He
