List of Kappa Alpha Order chapters
Kappa Alpha Order is a social fraternity and a fraternal order founded in 1865 at Washington and Lee University.[1] Chapter names were often reused in the early decades of the fraternity, and the final successor group normally goes by the shortened name, for example Mu chapter at Tulsa is the fourth to carry that name.[1] Commissions first appeared in 1915, empowered to elect and initiate graduates of military institutions.[2] Commissions can be established to replace a previously active chapter or at a four-year military institution, or in the case of Omega, used for both Centre graduates and for general legacy election. Where an active chapter is re-established, the commission at that school is deactivated.
In the following list of chapters, active chapters are indicated in bold and inactive chapters are in italics.[1][3][4][2]

Notes
[edit]- ^ The Order's first commission was placed at VMI in 1915 when Academy rules determined active fraternity chapters would no longer be allowed to continue. Alumni-led, commissions appoint membership into ΚΑ for graduating seniors and graduates of the institution, faculty, and staff. The fraternity considers these members equivalent to those who joined through a collegiate chapter.
