Membership Directory Announcement and FAQ Page

Update: Directories are scheduled to ship September 21.

Phi Kappa Theta is working with Publishing Concepts (PCI) to create our official Membership Directory. PCI is a company that creates and publishes directories for educational institutions and membership organizations. The Phi Kappa Theta Membership Directory, which is published every four years, is very popular for brother-to-brother use and helps the Executive Office maintain our database.

PCI will be contacting Phi Kappa Theta brothers to gather information for the Membership Directory. Brothers will be contacted first through postcards and emails, then through follow-up phone calls, if necessary. We hope you contact PCI to verify your most up-to-date information. We understand there might be hesitation to provide your information to just anyone, so we want you to know that their request for your information is legitimate.

Brothers can purchase in advance a printed copy and/or digital publication immediately; however, there is no obligation to purchase. The Directory can help you search and maintain contact with brothers, share your most recent information with the chapter so you can be included with chapter events and activities and more.

Thank you for your participation and for supporting this important Fraternity initiative! If you have any questions regarding this initiative, please review the Membership Directory FAQ below. You may also contact our Director of Brand Management, Keith Harshbarger at 317-536-4750 or via executiveoffices@phikaps.org.

Frequently Asked Questions By Members

  1. I received an email/postcard/phone call from a company asking for my personal information. They said they were working on a directory for Phi Kappa Theta Fraternity. Is this a legitimate project, or is it a scam?

    • We have partnered with PCI (also known as Publishing Concepts) to produce our new Members directory. PCI is a company located in Dallas, TX that publishes directories for educational institutions, fraternities, sororities and military organizations across the nation. This project allows Phi Kappa Theta Fraternity to receive important updates to our database so we know more about our Members and how we can better serve you and future Members.

    • Phi Kappa Theta Fraternity has a contractual agreement with PCI that states:

      • a. The names, addresses and information provided to PCI by Phi Kappa Theta Fraternity for the publication of the Directory will be held confidential by PCI, except to the extent that they are utilized in, or in the preparation of, the Directory and except as required by court order or law.

      • b. The Directory will be made available only to Members of Phi Kappa Theta Fraternity. Upon completion of the project, PCI will return to Phi Kappa Theta Fraternity any and all electronic files that have been supplied by Phi Kappa Theta Fraternity or produced by PCI in connection with the production of the Directory.
