Elvis--TKE

Elvis was initiated into Beta Psi chapter of TKE at Arkansas State,
having some old buddies already in the chapter. He did not go to
school there. He did keep a lot of TKE stuff, and his signature of
membership is one of the few in existence using all three of his
names. TKE still has that scroll and a goodly number of photos of
his initiation & subsequent events. He visited the chapter many
times. Arkansas State Tekes can tell many tales of his visits.

Okay, now I'm thinking about the possible fund raising possibilities lost here! "Elvis Sings - for Sorority!"

honeychile, you're hilarious!!

There weren't any ADPi's at my college so I'm not familiar with any of their songs, but I can imagine how it must have been when he sang them, and I still think it's funny!

I did not know this!! As an Elvis geek, that is very interesting to me...thanks for sharing Erik P Conard!!

I've read many books and seen many movies about Elvis, it's funny this wasn't mentioned before (even briefly). That's so cool!

His step-brother wrote a book about fifteen years ago and mentioned that he and some high school buddies voted in Elvis as an honorary member of their high school "fraternity", but I've never heard about Elvis's involvement in a "real" college fraternity.
