Purpose of Chapters
One of Delta Kappa Epsilon's focuses within each Chapter is on community service in addition to the social aspect that goes along with most social Greek fraternities.
Each Chapter competes for a number of awards that includes leadership, chapter improvements, and community service. Each of these areas is used in awarding the overall award called the Lions Trophy.
The 2011 Lions Trophy winner was Psi chapter at the University of Alabama. The chapter won this award in the wake of sponsoring a food drive to help give relief to the Tuscaloosa community devastated by tornadoes.
