What is a “Master of the Ritual”?
Theta-Zeta has had a large number of Masters of the Ritual over the course of the Master concept. To become a Master of the Ritual is one of the highest individual honors in Kappa Sigma. A Master has earned all six Ritual Proficiency Certificates; each is earned after memorizing and testing for a certain part of our Ritual. While each varies in difficulty, it is no easy task, and shows the dedication a Master has to Kappa Sigma and his Chapter. It is due to this overwhelming dedication that Theta-Zeta has earned the George Miles Arnold Cup for Ritual Proficiency for 21 of 22 straight years, and a Ritual Proficiency Excellence Award in 2013. As Theta-Zeta moves forward, so will this dedication to our beloved fraternity.
