Phi Alpha Kappa
Mission Statement
Phi Alpha Kappa is a fraternity of men unified in their desire to walk with God. It is the mission of Phi Alpha Kappa to provide for the needs of these men as they attend college - which includes the provision of a safe and clean living environment. Phi Alpha Kappa aims to promote the growth of its members, as individuals and members of the fraternity, through a central focus on God.
PAK: A Century of History
Phi Alpha Kappa was founded in 1929 by a group of Calvin College graduates studying at the University of Michigan. Spotting a distinct lack in Christian housing, they created a fraternity dedicated to the provision of wholesome fellowship for Christian brothers on campus. Over our almost century-long history we’ve had three houses, ultimately moving to our current home of 1010 E Ann St in the fall of 1944. Today, Phi Alpha Kappa exists as one of the oldest fraternities on campus, a testament to the enduring blessing of God.
College is a place where diverse people with unique perspectives come together; Phi Alpha Kappa sees this diversity as strength and seeks to foster in it an attitude of Christian acceptance. PAK is a place where members have the freedom to make choices under the loving guidance of their fellow brothers. We believe that this mindset fosters growth in our members as they assist each other in the pursuit of Godly wisdom.
