In 1997, during his tenure as Grand President, Jay Stanley (Tennessee ’62) felt so strongly about the Fraternity’s Cardinal Principle, To Stimulate Scholarship, that he implemented a program which recognizes undergraduates who are outstanding students. The Fraternity is pleased to continue that program, the Academic Key Society.
This academic honorary will recognize members who attain a 3.5 grade point average or above. Members will receive a certificate for a first-time achievement and a lapel pin and certificates for those who receive this distinction in consecutive grading periods. Like other honoraries, Phi Sigma Kappa will refer to its lapel pin recognition piece as a “key.”
