PI BETA PHI Oral History Project
The essence of Sincere Friendship lies in the moments that define us, and each Pi Phi story adds another thread to the rich tapestry of our sisterhood. To honor and preserve the history, traditions, and bonds shared by our more than 260,000 living members, Pi Beta Phi Fraternity for Women is thrilled to partner with Publishing Concepts (PCI) to collect the stories of Pi Beta Phi alumnae in their own words. These stories will be compiled into a special book that honors the lasting influence of Pi Phi and the role it has played in shaping who you are today.
Through this initiative, we also hope to strengthen our alumnae network by making it easier for members to stay connected. In addition to collecting cherished memories, PCI will assist us in updating contact information for members who may have moved, changed email addresses, or taken on new professional roles.
So, what’s your Pi Phi story? A lifelong friendship that started on Bid Day? A mentor who made a lasting difference in your life? A moment in Pi Phi that shaped your career or helped you navigate a challenge? Perhaps you were part of the sisterhood during a pivotal time in history.
Whatever your story, we’d love to hear it!

I received an email/postcard/phone call from a company asking for my personal information and said they were working with Pi Beta Phi Fraternity for Women. Is this a respectable project?
Pi Beta Phi has partnered with PCI (also known as Publishing Concepts) to produce an Oral History Publication for Pi Beta Phi Fraternity for Women.
PCI is a family-owned business based in Dallas, TX that has published directories for educational institutions, fraternities, sororities, and military organizations across the nation for over 100 years.
