TKE Knoxville was actually spearheaded by a brother from the Sigma Omicron chapter at Middle Tennessee State University (for the record). The problem that keeps them a colony has to do with rules involving the IFC at UTK. Apparently, in order to be considered an official fraternity there you have to have an established tradition with the school. This is a conundrum as an organization would need to be chartered in order to establish that tradition with the school. As far as sheer numbers, I'm not too sure as to their status. It is my belief that they're doing alright as a chapter, but I could be wrong.
By the way, thanks for the compliment Frater Conard for the 'good chapters in TN' remark. I do appreciate that.
