Why Kappa Psi Initially, I joined because all my friends in school were rushing too. But soon afterwards, it became a pathway to professional and personal connections as well as an improved sense of leadership and confidence. Most of all, I really enjoy spending time with and making memories with my Kappa Psi Brothers.

Why Kappa Psi I had joined Kappa Psi because I wanted to forward my career as a pharmacist but be a part of something bigger than myself. In undergrad, I had the opportunity to be a part of several student organizations on campus, giving me the opportunity to build a sense of community, purpose, and direction with those around me. Enrolling into pharmacy school, Kappa Psi stood out to me with the potential to give me the tools I needed to succeed as a student pharmacist and use those same tools to better my campus and community. After crossing over, I can say for certain rushing and pledging for Kappa Psi has made a positive impact on myself and the endeavors I have become apart of!

Why Kappa Psi? The people 100% They are my friends, my family, my coworkers, my cheerleaders, my support group. Other bonuses: The leadership skills I’ve learned and networking opportunities through Kappa Psi have better equipped me in my professional and personal lives. My province and GCC traveling have led to numerous experiences and explorations that I normally would not have considered. The mindset of paying it forward yet continuing to receive so much more than what I can give.
