01 · Our chapter
A tradition with purpose
Rooted in history. Focused on what’s next.
Pi Kappa Alpha was founded in Room 47 of the West Range at the University of Virginia on March 1, 1868. Its original mission centered on brotherly love and kind feeling.
Alpha Zeta was established at the University of Arkansas in 1904. Today, the chapter carries that legacy forward through academic effort, service in Fayetteville, leadership development, and enduring friendship.
