Alpha Kappa Chi

Alpha Kappa Chi (AKX for short) is a gender-inclusive professional fraternity focused on environmental sustainability and conservation. AKX prioritizes and promotes professional development, community activism, and brotherhood to help members prepare for and commit to environmentally conscious lifestyles. George Mason’s AKX chapter runs service projects both on campus and around Fairfax County and aims to make a real and impactful difference in our community.

Established at the University of Buffalo in 2011, AKX is a budding fraternity that currently has three active chapters across the United States. Here at George Mason University, we are the Beta Chapter (the second chapter ever established!)

Alpha Kappa Chi's Objectives:

• To foster the growth of environmental learning in universities
• To advocate for the advancement of environmental careers
• To educate members and the community about environmental ideas and concerns
• To live as a role model of sustainable and conscious living
• To network and connect with other young professionals
• To create lifelong bonds of friendship and brotherhood with like-minded individuals
• To inspire brothers to grow in self-confidence and integrity

Alpha Kappa Chi's Motto:

"diligamus nos ipsos et terram."
we love each other and the earth.
