Kappa Kappa Psi Creed
We, the Brothers of Kappa Kappa Psi, believe that service to the college or
university band program fosters responsibility, loyalty, and leadership; that a
spirit of brotherhood is enhanced by the participation in a band program; that
music is a universal language and truly the greatest of the arts; and that through
fraternal participation, each member will strive for the highest.
Kappa Kappa Psi is a national honorary fraternity for college bandsmen
founded in 1919. See the History page for more information.
