Klopfenstein, Punzel Depart from Professional Staff

It is with mixed feelings the Offices of the Grand Chapter announces the departure of Daniel Klopfenstein and Dakota Punzel from Tau Kappa Epsilon’s Professional Staff.

Frater Daniel Klopfenstein (Alpha-Gamma, Washington State) spent the past two years on staff as a communications specialist. He was influential in the production and management of the Fraternity’s social media accounts, online content and THE TEKE Magazine. He was also instrumental in the creation of The Official TKE Recruitment Guide, St. Jude Fundraising Guide and Social Media Guide.

Frater Dakota Punzel (Lambda-Zeta, Troy) joined the Professional Staff in the summer of 2015 as an operations specialist, where he specialized in expansion, recruitment and philanthropic efforts. He was a catalyst in the tremendous growth of many chapters and colonies across TKE Nation and helped the Beta-Phi chapter at Louisiana State University recruit 54 men during the 2015-16 academic year.

The Offices of the Grand Council applauds Fraters Klopfenstein and Punzel for their tireless work to better the Fraternity.
