Kappa Tau Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Lecture and Candlelight Vigil

The Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Candlelight Vigil is the oldest MLK celebration at Kansas State University. This event is done annually since 2001 to commemorate the contributions of one of our dear fallen brothers during the university MLK Observances Week. In addition, the brothers of the Kappa Tau chapter come together and recite a few peoms that are near and dear to our hearts in Alpha aroud the MLK memorial bust located on campus.
