Pi Kappa Phi

Theta Iota, Washington State University

FOR NEARLY ONE HUNDRED YEARS, PI KAPPA PHI has been building better men on college campuses across the country. From our humble roots at the College of Charleston in South Carolina to over 140 campuses today, Pi Kappa Phi stands for a commitment to fundamental values. We are a first class fraternity who firmly believes in the tenets of Character, Leadership, Academics, Sportsmanship, and Service. These principles are not only valued, but instilled through leading-edge educational, service, and leadership opportunities. We are America's Leading Fraternity.

A general college fraternity, such as Pi Kappa Phi, participates in many different college activities. On the social side, we organize socials with sororities, have tailgate parties before football games, and enjoy various other brother activities. In athletics we compete against other organizations and fraternities in softball, basketball, football, soccer, and volleyball. A unique facet of our fraternity is also our national philanthropy, PUSH America. Last, but not certainly not least, with the help of our scholarship chair and study tables, we encourage scholarship and academic achievement.

Our Mission:

We will lead.

The expression of shared values and ideals
as contained in the Ritual of Initiation,
Supreme Law and Fraternity policy;

The pursuit of brotherhood through
scholarship, leadership, service
and social experiences;

The achievement of personal excellence
in each member and
collective excellence in our Fraternity;

A lifelong brotherhood of its members.
