Pi Alpha Phi is recognized as the oldest Asian-American interest fraternity to be established in the United States. Since the founding of Pi Alpha Phi, our fraternity has expanded to seven other campuses: UC Davis, San Jose State University, UC Riverside, UC Santa Cruz, UC Irvine, UC San Diego, and the University of Michigan. Today, the basic premise of the fraternity remains largely unchanged. With brotherhood as our immutable asset, the lifelong bonds that we develop extend far beyond the university setting. Although the fraternity is open to individuals of all ethnic backgrounds, it still retains its Asian-American character. Ultimately, the basic goals of brotherhood achieved through shared experience, friendship, and academic excellence remain unaltered. From generation to generation, the organization evolves, but the underlying vision and heart of the fraternity is as solid today, as it was for six young Berkeley men in 1926. |
