Okay, so you've decided to give recruitment a shot.
Maybe you've already decided you want to go Greek-
maybe you're not so sure. We really don't care.
Forget everything you know about (or think you
know) about being in a fraternity. Being a "Pike" is not
about having a few buddies to drink with on the
weekends. It's not just about having a few Greek
letters to brandish on your chest. Letters aren't what
Pi Kappa Alpha is made of. We don't rely on our
brotherhood- WE MAKE IT! We're not looking for the
guy who "needs" a fraternity. To pledge Pi Kappa
Alpha is to subscribe to a higher ideal of achievement
and friendship. Ours is a collection of scholars,
leaders, athletes, and above all, gentlemen. But
actions speak louder than words, and we welcome
the opportunity to tell you about some of the
outstanding men who call themselves brethren.
Pi Kappa Alpha will push you to your limits. After all, a complete man is not average or mediocre; he is one who
excels in every facet of life. He is a scholar who recognizes the necessity of academic excellence to achieve
success. He is a leader, committed to helping others and guiding the way to a better community. He is an athlete,
who understands that physical activity helps develop a man's potential. Most of all, he is a gentleman, who has care
and concern for others and conducts himself in a proper manner.
Friendship
Athletics, academics and social events mean little if you don't like the people you live with. Pi Kappa Alpha is a
tight-knit unit. The friendships our members make last a lifetime. Our members are always ready to lend each other
a helping hand, and this bond is also extended to our pledges. Pikes do not give bids to prospective members
without intending to initiate them. Hazing can play no part in a friendship. This friendship is not shared just among
active members; our alumni are also actively involved with the fraternity. Alumni can provide career guidance, job
references and placement assistance.
Pikes Are Everywhere...
Pikes are more than just a single, isolated chapter. The American University chapter is just one of 200 Pi Kappa
Alpha chapters across the United States and Canada. Pi Kappa Alpha is one of the largest and strongest
international fraternities. Can you imagine having brothers at all of the nation's best colleges and universities?
Pikes are everywhere.
The benefits of such a strong base of support are many and varied. The national fraternity provides scholarships
and low-interest loans to help you financially. There are also regional and national conventions where you can meet
Pikes from across North America. Wherever you go, whatever you do, Pikes will be there to help you. It's a network
of brothers that you can always count on.

If you think you have what it takes to be a Pike, we are eager to meet you.
Thanks for taking the time to take a look at the Pi Kappa Alpha
fraternity. The brothers extend to you our welcome and wish you
good luck for your college years, no matter where you decide to
go: whether into a club, organzation, or any fraternity, not just Pi
Kappa Alpha. But if you want to get the best out of your college
years, through sports and social activities, while still living in an
academic environment, then Pikes may be the place for you.
Come visit us anytime and come out to our events above- come
see the seven-day-a-week fraternity that thrives between the
weekends. Witness the potency of our brotherhood and see if
you have what it takes to be a brother of Pi Kappa Alpha. See
you there!
