Pi Kappa Alpha Foundation - Oral History Project
Pi Kappa Alpha Foundation is thrilled to extend an invitation to all members. We invite you to share your unique connection and experiences with Pi Kappa Alpha!
Our oral history project offers alumni the platform to narrate their Pi Kappa Alpha in their own words. These personal stories will be compiled into a collection that celebrates our enduring legacy.
This initiative is made possible through a partnership between the Pi Kappa Alpha Foundation and Publishing Concepts (PCI). In addition to gathering stories, PCI will assist the Pi Kappa Alpha Foundation in updating members biographical information. This ensures we maintain accurate records to stay connected with Pi Kappa Alpha members across the nation and beyond.

I received an email/postcard/phone call from a company asking for my personal information and said they were working with Pi Kappa Alpha Foundation. Is this a respectable project?
We have partnered with PCI (also known as Publishing Concepts) to produce an Oral History Publication for Pi Kappa Alpha Foundation.
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. This project allows us to hear about your personal experiences in Pi Kappa Alpha and how the organization helped to shape your life. And, while we have you on the phone, we want to make sure your contact information is up to date.
For more information and Frequently Asked Questions about this project, please see below.
