Kappa Kappa Psi is a coeducational Fraternity dedicated to the service, promotion, and advancement of college and university bands. Our approximately 5,000 student members provide leadership, musicianship, and support to over 200 band programs across the United States. As such, Brothers are often referred to as the “backbone” of the band program. The Epsilon Epsilon chapter was founded at Southwes
tern Oklahoma State University under the leadership of Ray Bell when he and twenty-five other members formed the Southwestern College Band Club and they petitioned for membership. The Alpha Chapter came from Stillwater and made the group a colony, and put them on probation. On May 26, 1967, Kappa Kappa Psi granted membership and the Epsilon Epsilon chapter of Kappa Kappa Psi was born. We were then given SCHEWÖSTEOPLE, SIR! Since then Epsilon Epsilon was awarded as one of the “Top Ten” chapters (1983-1985), and the current members continue to “Strive for the Highest” through service to the band, providing an “Outstanding Soloist” scholarship at the annual Jazz Fest, holding social activities for the bands, and their “Sound Explosion” DJ service. The Southwestern Oklahoma State University Faculty Advisors are Mr. Marc Mueller and Dr. Robert Chambers.
