History of the Gulf Coast Province
Prior to the formation of our province, chapters of the Gulf Coast Province were included in the now defunct South Atlantic Province, which was founded on March 5, 1917 . Upon the growth of the fraternity, the South Atlantic Province split into two separate provinces: Province IV, which included all collegiate and graduate chapters in Alabama, Florida, Georgia, and the Bahamas, and Province VII, which included all collegiate and graduate chapters in Arkansas, Kansas, Louisiana, Mississippi, Missouri, Oklahoma, Tennessee, and Texas.
After a period of growth that saw the fraternity increase by 69%, the Executive Committee decided to increase the number of Provinces in Kappa Psi. Effective as of August 1, 2012, the Gulf Coast Province was created. The Gulf Coast Province consists of nine collegiate chapters and seven graduate chapters from Alabama, Louisiana, Mississippi, and Tennessee that tirelessly work to promote the objectives of our great fraternity.
