“I felt like I would have made a big mistake had I not joined Kappa Kappa Psi. Of course, being a musician gives you the opportunity to meet fantastic individuals. But being a brother on top of that leads you to build lasting relationships with these same individuals - not much different from familial ties. We strive together as a team to serve our music communities at UCLA and beyond, and we bond together as a family to care for each other. Our brotherhood is special, and there is something here for everyone. No matter where we come from - our triumphs, our trials, our stories - we know that each and every one of us belong here. This is what it means to be a brother of Kappa Kappa Psi.”

"Kappa Kappa Psi elevated my UCLA marching band experience. It took the overwhelming size of the band and compacted it into a more personal and intimate entity. Kappa Kappa Psi taught me how to better serve my community, how to forge new and positive relationships, and how an individual’s unique traits can bolster an organization’s cohesiveness. I am thankful for the brotherhood that Psi shared with me during my time at UCLA and for the bonds with the brothers I still maintain today."
