Our Roots
Before becoming Texas Alpha, the chapter grew out of a small University of Texas social group known as “The Valentine Club.” With the help of fraternity friends, the women researched national sororities and chose Pi Beta Phi for its history and values. Because the university prohibited sorority installations on campus, the ceremony was held secretly, led by past Grand Secretary Ida Smith Griffith, Kansas Alpha, and Illinois Delta Loretta Hood Young. Soon after, the university called the group before its Disciplinary Committee but ultimately allowed the chapter to remain.Collegiate Chapter Leadership

Building Leaders Who Shine
Chapter Leadership Education Expendable (CLEE) funds directly empower our sisters’ leadership journeys, helping eliminate financial barriers to leadership development opportunities for both chapter leaders and individual members. Giving to a CLEE fund allows donors to support the chapters they love while lighting the way for future leaders.
When you're with her, you’re home
Pi Phi chapter facilities are where friendships take root, leaders find their voice and sisterhood shines across generations. From memories made over shared meals to the built-in support from late-night study sessions and knowing your sisters are there in both the big and small moments, living in a chapter facility creates a sense of home and belonging within every wall.
