The growth and expansion of our fraternity is one of our highest priorities. For our organization to endure, we must expand the reach of the Phi Kap experience to as many men as possible. This includes creating chapters at new campuses and breathing life back into dormant chapters. For the past several years, our expansion committee has been working very hard to achieve one of the most rapid growth periods in our fraternity’s history.

Within the past year, the fruit or our labor has manifested itself in some exciting news. The rebirth of Alpha Kappa Chapter at the University of Alabama marked our first chartering of the year and we recently (April 2008) rechartered the University of Wisconsin (Alpha Theta).  Plans are in place to charter our current colony at Virginia Commonwealth University in Fall 2008. We recently (April 2008) recolonized at Penn State University (Psi) and the University of South Carolina (Alpha Eta) and  are also working toward formalizing colonies at Queens College and Randolph- Macon College (Tau) by Fall 2008. Every expansion effort requires an enormous amount of effort from many Phi Kaps. This includes the expansion committee volunteers, headquarters staff, national volunteers, and local alumni volunteers. Bringing all of these men together to start a new chapter is both a challenging and rewarding experience. It takes consistent commitment over the course of many months or years to form a chapter. However, the reward is great, and the relationships formed along the way are wonderful.

To see our entire organization work together in this way is extraordinary. Growing is a key to Phi Kap expansion and alumni-driven growth creates some of our strongest opportunities, seen recently at Alabama and South Carolina. We welcome any alumni members interested in restarting their chapter to reach out to the expansion committee and begin the process.

Colleges and universities focus on Greek Life that share their emphasis on values, scholastics, and professionalism. This provides a great opportunity for Phi Kappa Sigma, since we have a track record of starting successful new chapters that exemplify “Men of Honor.” Whether you are a current undergrad with friends at a different university, an alumnus looking to work toward re-opening his chapter, or just interested in the expansion of Phi Kap, we welcome you to contact the International Headquarters, staff@pks.org, and find out how to help.
