The Honor Society of Phi Kappa Phi

The Honor Society of Phi Kappa Phi was founded in 1897 and became a national organization through the efforts of

presidents of three state universities. From the start, its primary objective has been to recognize and encourage superior

scholarship in all fields of study, with good character as a supporting attribute of those elected to membership.

“Let the Love of Learning Rule Humanity”

Motto of the Society

San José State University Chapter Founded in 1953
