ALPHA EPSILON PHI
KAPPA CHAPTER at Cornell University
Bigs and Littles
Another very important tradition to Kappa chapter is the pairing of Bigs and Littles. A Big is already a member of the house, usually someone in the Member Class above, a Little will be someone in the newest Member Class. Along with a Big, you receive an entire Lineage, which includes you, your Big, Big’s Big, and even your Big’s Big Big! Lineages unite the house across the different years and Member Classes, and can provide valuable advice about classes, internships, and more. Lineages will get together for dinners, midnight ice cream runs, or even just hang out in Café Libe. Bigs and Littles held strengthen the bonds between younger and older members of the house, and although it may sound cheesy, chances are your Big will be one of your closest friends!
