The Pi Kappa Alpha

Statement on Integrity

A

Our Founders created Pi Kappa Alpha
to attract men committed to the full development
of their intellectual and personal potential.

This object requires
that a community of trust exist among all brothers,
along with a faithful devotion
to truth and honour.

Integrity is demanded
in all relationships and pursuits,
both personal and academic.

Q

The Dream Girl of Pi Kappa Alpha

A

The dream girl of Pi Kappa Alpha
Is the girl I’ll always adore
She’s enchanting as starlight, and oh, how I long,
To be the lucky one boy to whom she’ll belong.

The dream girl of Pi Kappa Alpha
Is the ideal of all that I love,
We put our hearts in the game
But whose heart will she claim?
Will the Pi Kappa Alpha dream girl be mine, be mine, be mine?
