Kappa Kappa Psi

Kappa Kappa Psi is primarily a student service and leadership recognition society whose chief aim is to assist the Bands with neccessary leadership and enthusiasm. Our goals are not only to provide the band with organized service activities, but to give our membership wholesome experiences in organization, leadership, and social engagements. The honorary nature of membership is based on our premise that “it is an honor to be selected to serve” this band, its department of music, its sponsoring institution, and the cause of band music in the nation's colleges and universities.

Membership in Kappa Kappa Psi is an educational and service activity as well as social one. And it is this kind of activity that enriches the band student's life and sharpens an appreciation for both the best in Music and what it takes to achieve it. It is to this end that our National Fraternity is dedicated, and we cordially invite your participation in this effort.

Tau Beta Sigma

Tau Beta Sigma National Honorary Band Sorority provides service to collegiate bands, encourages the advancement of women in the band profession, and promotes and enriches an appreciation of band music through recognition, leadership development, and education of its members.

We strive to create an organization to promote band music as an integral part of the American cultural experience; and, to promote enrichment of the human experience through participation in and exposure to collegiate bands; and, to recognize deserving women and their contributions to these goals.
