Pi Kappa Phi
Pi Kappa Phi fraternity was founded in 1904 in Charleston, SC. It was originally founded as Nu Phi, the
non-fraternity. The founders of Pi Kappa Phi never wanted to be in a fraternity, and because of this one of our goals as Pi Kapps is to
break the frat
stereotype. Pi Kapps strongly oppose all acts of hazing and the use of
alcohol at rush, pre-initiation, and initiation events.
Pi Kappa Phi strives to build the quality of its members through the five tenants of CLASS: Character, Leadership, Academics, Sportsmanship, and Service. Today, Pi Kappa Phi focuses on two of these tenants: Leadership and Service.
The mission statement of Pi Kappa Phi is "We will lead," and Pi Kappa Phi has many events that develop the leadership potential of its members, such as Pi Kapp College, Supreme Chapter,
Mid-Year Leadership Conference, and through its philanthropy, Push America. Push America's mission statement is "Building leaders of tomorrow by serving
people with disabilities today," and Push America hosts several large scale events that serve this mission, including: The Journey of
Hope, Build America, and Gear Up Florida.
