TKN ritual

The TKN ritual was explained at the Centennial. It does not resemble to AM ceremony much. There is a TKN robe on display at Indy and should you visit they will make a TKN ritual book available to you to read.

Part of the merger deal was that the TKN ritual would never be performed and we've kept that promise.

Good to know, hope to make a pilgrimage to Indy sometime soon.

So that means we are still able to reproduce the TKN ritual if we ever wanted to?

Interesting. I never knew that the TKN ritual has been forever sealed.

It was made by agreement in the merger. No, we cannot do a ritual out of respect to their Fratenrity.

There were some things incorporated into LXA Ritual and paraphanalia such as the C of A plus the new member pin. Just a few compulations between the two Fraternities.

BTW, the pledge pin on ebay was way over priced.

But it is also in the eye of the beholder.

I need to make it back to HQ in Indy. It's been almost 10 years since I was last there.

As far as own, I'm limited due to experience and only having been initiated in 2006. But as (one of) the nerdiest at our chapter (Pi-Lamba, STLCOP), I've been able to get my hands on a couple things of interest to me.
  • Purple, alumnus pyramid with crucicrescent embedded inside.
  • At a conclave a few years back, I won on a trivia team and received a hardcopy of a history of Lambda Chi, which was similar to "a Historical Prospective".
  • Autographs from several high ups during Centennial.
But for things I've seen in the fraternity, just most anything at Indy, including a painting or 3.
