Nope TKE was founded as Knights of Classic Lore in 1899. We became TKE 1903 to look impressive to phi delta theta because in those days the founders wanted to be apart of Greek letter organization. After being turned down a couple times and after the "Opportunity Out of Defeat" speech by Wallace G. McCauley we decided to become a national fraternity of our own. Its all in the TKE guide.
