“The success of Pi Kappa Phi can be attributed to two things. From the beginning we had the right principles. But in that regard, we were no different from other organizations which start bravely but fall. Yes, in 1904 we sparked the idea, but it is to those men who came after us that we owe our wonderful Pi Kappa Phi . . . we have given you the past as we know it. The future we leave with you.”

Founder L. Harry Mixson

To be a Pi Kappa Phi is to be a leader. And our commitment to developing leaders dates back more than 100 years to our humble beginning at the College of Charleston where Pi Kappa Phi was founded by men who chose to lead. Today Pi Kappa Phi has given more than 98,000 men the opportunity to become leaders by choice.

If you are interested in becoming a leader on your campus, in your community and throughout your life, Pi Kappa Phi is the fraternity that can help you get there. Through the tenets of CLASS—Character, Leadership, Academics, Sportsmanship and Service—Pi Kappa Phi is committed to the personal development of each of our members.

Whether you attend a Life 401 workshop facilitated by a Pi Kappa Phi alumnus who is a Fortune 100 Consultant to create your life strategy, or participate in a corporate-level leadership training seminar with Franklin Covey’s 7 Habits of Highly Effective People; and whether you cycle from the West Coast to Washington, D.C., raising funds and awareness for people with disabilities, or meet with your chapter’s academic coach to plan your semester, Pi Kappa Phi provides the resources to help you achieve your full potential.

We all face choice everyday. And the choices we make can affect the rest of our lives. Choosing the right fraternity is an important decision—on that will have a profound impact on your days as a student and in your life as a leader.
