Better yourself every single day.
We strive to live each day by our founding principles and consistently work towards the betterment of Pi Kappa Phi, ourselves and the world. Our public core values were created to help guide the decisions we make.
Common Loyalty
A commitment to Pi Kappa Phi that transcends any personal selfishness.
Personal Responsibility
The expectation that you live both your personal values, as well as those espoused in the Fraternity’s Ritual of Initiation.
Achievement
The expectation that you find your passion and excel.
Accountability
The duty to uphold and abide by the Fraternity’s standards of conduct and to use Ultimate Respect when confronting brothers who fail in their obligations to Pi Kappa Phi.
Campus Involvement
The obligation to become engaged in the college or university community.
Responsible Citizenship
The duty to lead and the privilege to serve others in order to better the world around you.
Lifelong Commitment
The obligation to remain involved in Pi Kappa Phi after graduation and to work perpetually to build the ideal fraternity.
Pi Kappa Phi’s esoteric values are taught to each member through our Ritual of Initiation. During this secret ceremony, we learn, in the words of our founders, the principles and ideals upon which our fraternity was built more than a century ago.
