Description
In 1920, a group of Catholics denied membership to traditional fraternities formed a social group called "The Amician Club". Amician is Latin for friend. The club gained strength, membership, and financial standing, culminating in a charter with Phi Kappa, The national Catholic fraternity. The fraternity continued to grow and in 1934 the property at 2110 Lincoln Way was secured to house the brothers. In 1959, two Catholic fraternities, Phi Kappa and Theta Kappa Phi, merged to form Phi Kappa Theta. Membership is open to all faiths while still holding on to its rich catholic roots. 2024 marked Phi Kappa Theta's 100th year at Iowa State as the Iowa Xi Chapter. Members of Phi Kappa Theta go by the five pillars fraternal, intellectual, spiritual, social, and leadership. The men of Phi Kappa Theta strive to create servant leaders for the future, and being a member of Phi Kappa Theta is sure to bring a lifelong brotherhood that enables our men to make the most of their time in college and be the best versions of themselves for the future.
