The four founders are Taylor Albert Borradaile, Clinton dewitt Boyd, dwight Ireneus douglas, and William Henry Shideler. Founded as the Non-Fraternity Association to give Miami’s non-fraternity men a voice in campus political affairs, the organization changed its name to Phrenecon on March 6, 1909, because the name Non-Fraternity Association seemed too negative. Phrenecon became national in 1911 when a second chapter was formed at Ohio University. Additional chapters were established at Ohio State University, Centre College (danville, Kentucky), Mount Union College (Alliance, Ohio), and the University of Illinois. At Miami, the chapter began to have difficulty retaining members by the early ‘teens. Often, men joined Phrenecon, then later dropped their membership and joined Greek-letter fraternities. For that reason, the Miami chapter of Phrenecon withdrew from the National Phrenecon and adopted the name Phi Kappa Tau on March 9, 1916. The rest of the chapters agreed to the name change in december of that year and invited Miami to return to the national organization as the Alpha chapter of Phi Kappa Tau. Comprising a diverse group of men of the highest character, Phi Kappa Tau, one of Virginia Tech’s newest fraternities, offers the best opportunities in social, academic, and athletic experiences to its members. Its commitment to excellence and strength in its brotherhood separates Phi Kappa Tau as one of the most honored organizations on Virginia Tech’s campus. Some of its achievements include 2006 IFC President, New member Chair, and IFC Public Relations Chair; 2003 Academy of Excellence Nominee; 2003 Neighborhood Enhancement Award for Best Greek House; 2002 Greek Man of the Year; Greek Week Winners (two consecutive years); two Homecoming court members; Highest New Member Grades 2001; Best Alcohol-Free Programming; and Best New Greek Advisor. It features off-campus housing.

Strengthened by a merger with Phi Sigma Epsilon in 1985, the fraternity has a total membership of more than 120,000 and can be found on 78 campuses nationwide. For more than 130 years, members of Phi Sigma Kappa have followed the golden rule: “do unto others as you would have them do unto you.” Phi Sig provides young men the opportunity to forge lifelong friendships, which are enhanced through athletics, leadership opportunities, brotherhood retreats, and social events. Being a brother means more than just being a member of the fraternity. Our cardinal principles: to promote brotherhood, to stimulate scholarship, and to develop character, lead brothers to a successful life personally and professionally.
