Phi Beta Kappa is the nation’s oldest and most prestigious undergraduate honors organization. Only 290 colleges and universities in the United States are sufficiently rigorous and intellectually challenging to host a chapter of Phi Beta Kappa. Every three years, the Society’s governing body considers applications from institutions desiring to establish chapters, and a handful of the best are usually approved at each triennial Council. To learn more about the history of the national organization, so our History of Phi Beta Kappa page.

The College of Wooster’s chapter, Kappa of Ohio, was installed in April of 1926. Our chapter is honored that Niall W. Slater, a 1976 alumnus of The College of Wooster, served as the National President of Phi Beta Kappa from 2003-2006.
