Core Areas

Brotherhood

Members form meaningful, lifelong friendships with a multitude of people, from fellow students to local business leaders to faculty. The importance of social skills is emphasized with a variety of activities. As a result, a great deal of personal growth and satisfaction is achieved which carries well into the business world.

Professional Development

Alpha Kappa Psi prides itself on offering a unique set of professional development opportunities for its members that cannot be found in the classroom.  We bring in numerous alumni speakers from corporations all over the country to meet, teach, and network with our members.

Alpha Kappa Psi realizes that the most effective learning opportunities come from hands-on experience.  We host interactive workshops for the members of Alpha Kappa Psi to work on fundamentals such as resumes, interviewing, and career fair techniques.  We also provide our members with opportunities to work on their soft skills through an annual Etiquette dinner and interacting with faculty at our Teach for Excellence wards.

Our professional development program is constantly changing to meet the needs and inters of our members.  Look for these and other similar events during the coming school year:

• A Kelley-wide case competition co-sponsored with Deloitte Consulting

• An AKPsi investment competition

• An AKPsi sales competition

• An AKPsi etiquette dinner co-sponsored with PwC

Community

"Much is expected of those to whom much is given."  We are business professionals who seek to develop goodwill, and improve lives, starting in our community.  Beta Gamma Chapter of Alpha Kappa Psi actively gives back to the community through regular volunteer work for:

• Adopt a Highway

• CLD Campus Cleanup

• Boys and Girls Club

• Hospitality House

• Hoosier Hills Food Bank

We are always actively seeking opportunities to help the community. 

Membership

Membership operations is one of the major undertakings of Chapter.  The Membership committee is primarily responsible for the recruiting, training, and initiation of future members of Chapter.  Each semester begins with a rush process, whereby the entire chapter undertakes an enormous marketing effort to attract the best and brightest at the Kelley School of Business (and IU).  The rush process culminates in a weekend of interviews.  Selection is based primarily upon observed potential to contribute to the organization as a value-adding member.
