TABLE of CONTENTS

Dear Friends,

“Mission in Action,” the theme of this year’s annual report, describes how we recognize and promote academic excellence in all fields of higher education and engage the community of scholars in service to others. Ours is not just an aspirational objective—it is a mission in action. Indeed, throughout this report, you will see examples of our members and chapters fulfilling the Phi Kappa Phi mission through a variety of heartfelt, generous and well-planned efforts that promote not only excellence but also help others in the process.

From one member’s quest to collect and distribute shoes for those in need to a chapter’s ongoing work to create a healthy learning environment for a primary school in Kongwa, Tanzania, the stories in the 2012 annual report provide glimpses into how our members reflect the Phi Kappa Phi mission in action.

Through the initiation of 32,621 new members, installation of three new chapters, awarding of $500,500 in grants and scholarships, and acknowledgment of 74 exceptional chapters, Phi Kappa Phi continued its commitment to academic excellence in 2012 as it has for 115 years.

It is only with your support that we are able to carry on the Society’s long history of honoring the best college students in the nation and helping fund the educational pursuits and service efforts of our members. Whether your contribution comes in the form of time, talent, or resources, it is absolutely essential to our success.

On behalf of the more than 1.25 million members who have been initiated into Phi Kappa Phi since its founding in 1897 and the many more yet to come, we thank you. In the words of the 20th century French Jesuit philosopher Pierre Teilhard de Chardin: “The future belongs to those who give the next generation reason for hope.”

Our

When The Honor Society of Phi Kappa

Phi was founded in 1897 at the University

of Maine, ten senior students, two faculty

members, and the school president set out

to create an honor society that was different

from the few others then in existence—one

that recognized and honored excellence in

all academic disciplines. Since that time Phi

Kappa Phi has grown by leaps and bounds,

chartering more than 300 chapters and

initiating more than 1.25 million members.

Thanks to members like you who support

Phi Kappa Phi through gifts of time,

talent and resources, the Society is able

to continue its long history of honoring

the best college students in the nation

and helping fund the educational pursuits

of its members. In 2012, the Society

installed three new chapters, welcomed

32,621 new members, granted $500,500

in scholarships and awards, recognized 74

exceptional chapters, and commemorated

seven chapter milestone anniversaries.

“I was looking for something

which would be an inspiration

to all students to work for

high rank, and I believed

that uniting those who were

interested would be helpful.”

a chapter, we are extremely proud to have been

AWARDS & SCHOLARSHIPS

SCHOLAR & ARTIST

“The Ecological Conservation Program was a fascinating learning experience that provided a unique perspec- tive to effectively manage and assess multiple

environments. Overall, this program was beneficial to my

academic and professional career and was a great opportunity to learn

from an international perspective. I truly am honored I was able to experience all of the wonderful moments with my fellow students, faculty, and the communities of Scotland, and I will never forget them.”

Douglas Wolf 2012 Study Abroad Recipient, University of Arkansas

“The Phi Kappa Phi Fellowship enabled me to continue in the lifelong process of learning. As a first year medical student, I volunteer in many free clinics that provide

health care for the uninsured, and I am constantly reminded of the

difference an education can make in one’s life—in terms of lifestyle, health, and fulfillment.”

AWARD TESTIMONIALS

“As I near the completion of my Ph.D., I have discovered my life’s calling is to become a professor in the field of higher education/student affairs. I have a passion to teach but to also lead transformative research studies that give a voice to students who are often overlooked on college campuses — LGBT students, students of color, first-generation college students, and students with limited income. The Love of Learning Award will provide me the opportunity to delve into my dissertation topic and give a voice to students who are often pushed to the margins on college and university campuses.”

Darris Means 2012 Love of Learning Recipient, Elon University

“As members of Phi Kappa Phi, we have the responsibility to make informed decisions and to adhere to principles of excellence and strong moral and ethical character. Simply stated: we have the responsibility to lead,” said Society President Dr. Diane G. Smathers as she closed the 2012 Convention with the New President’s Charge.

Phi Kappa Phi Past President Dr. William A. Bloodworth, Jr. (left) accepts a $10,000 gift on Phi Kappa Phi’s behalf from GEICO representative Chris LeMaster. The donation will support Phi Kappa Phi’s awards and scholarship programs.

“I look forward to working with a group of people who prize excellence and integrity,” said Dr. Ray Sylvester, who was named 2012-2014 Society President-elect at the 2012 Biennial Convention. “And I think among us we can do some wonderful things inside the academy and outside of it.”

Members participate in a Partnering for Success workshop hosted the day before Convention. The workshops explored many aspects of Phi Kappa Phi and chapter management including governance and operations, awards and benefits, publicity and communication and more.

WHAT DOES PHI KAPPA PHI MEAN TO YOU?

“Excellence.” “Potential.” “Inspirational.” “Honor.”

“Opportunity.” These are just a few of the words used by

members to describe Phi Kappa Phi in a new informational

video created in 2012. The video—filmed in St. Louis at

the 2012 Convention—pulls together Society members,

award winners, and leadership in a series of inspiring

testimonials. During the 3-minute video, members share

what Phi Kappa Phi means to them and highlight their

positive experiences with the Society. The video has been

featured prominently on the Phi Kappa Phi website

and in promotional materials as a way to highlight the

distinction and benefits of membership.

NEW BENEFIT IN 2012

Phi Kappa Phi offers numerous benefits and resources that assist members throughout their academic and professional lives. In 2012, Phi Kappa Phi welcomed new corporate partner and member benefit, Lenovo. As part of this partnership, Phi Kappa Phi members are able to purchase a variety of Lenovo products such as computers, tablets, smart phones and more at discounted prices.

“Lenovo aims to advance, enhance and extend education at all levels. We are proud to partner with Phi Kappa Phi to support education-related programs and initiatives through our industry leading products and technologies, community investments and program sponsorships.” - Lenovo

E N G AG I N G I N S E R V I C E TO OT H E R S

Even before Phi Kappa Phi added to its mission statement in 2002 “and to engage the community

of scholars in service to others,” many members and chapters were actively participating in a

variety of service initiatives. In fact, the mission statement was expanded to better reflect the

activities of the membership and the priorities of the Society as a whole.

The Society’s commitment to service to others is evident in the volunteer activities performed by

chapters and student and alumni members in 2012. Whether through a chapter-organized event,

a scholarship or award, or a community service project, Phi Kappa Phi’s members continued to

create a lasting impact on university and college campuses, in surrounding communities and

throughout the world. Although the Society’s chapters and members are most commonly united

through academic excellence, it is these bold acts of kindness and devotion to serving others that

truly create the unified community that is Phi Kappa Phi.

CHAPTERS IN SERVICE

Candy for the Mind! Austin Peay State University

With the help of a Phi Kappa Phi Literacy Grant, members of the Austin Peay State University chapter hosted its annual “Candy for the Mind” project during October 2012. Each year the chapter collects new and gently used children’s books to distribute during the university’s G.H.O.S.T. (Great Halloween Options for Safe Trick-or-Treating) event. The chapter has hosted the event for 10 consecutive years as a way to promote literacy and give back to the community.

“Reading and holding a real book in your hands is one of the great joys in life. Candy for the Mind encourages children to read and value that experience, and reading is at the heart of the PKP motto, ‘Let the love of learning rule humanity.’” – Dr. Dewey Browder, president of the Austin Peay chapter

Blessings in a Backpack Southeastern Louisiana University

The Phi Kappa Phi chapter at Southeastern Louisiana University partnered with the local Kiwanis Club and the university’s Kappa Delta Pi, Zeta Kappa Chapter to support the “Blessings in a Backpack” program at Woodland Park Elementary Magnet School in Hammond, Louisiana. The program—a national movement—provides food to low-income children each weekend. Through the assistance of a Phi Kappa Phi Literacy Grant, the Southeastern chapter was able to include children’s books in each of the backpacks provided to students.

“Poverty affects a child’s physical, social and academic well-being. When children— especially young children—experience poverty, they are at great risk for difficulties throughout life.” – Dr. Linda Munchausen, president of the Southeastern chapter

Shoe Boxes for Greensboro North Carolina A&T State University

During the 2012 holiday season, members of the North Carolina A&T State University chapter hosted a drive to collect everyday items to donate to those in need in the Greensboro, North Carolina community. With a great response to the request for items, the chapter was able to fill shoeboxes with goods ranging from socks to umbrellas to snacks. The stuffed boxes were donated to the Greensboro Urban Ministry for distribution to those most in need in the community.

“By organizing this event, we were able to establish a connection with the Greensboro Urban Ministry who expressed their interest for the donated items. As a result of our collection, we filled 60 shoeboxes that were distributed to those living in temporary shelters. This was a well-received activity, and we plan to continue it next Christmas.”

– Dr. Barbra F. Mosley, president of the North Carolina A&T State University Chapter

The Mnyakongo School Project San Diego State University

The San Diego State University

chapter of Phi Kappa Phi has

served as a critical component of

the multi-phased initiative known

as The Mnyakongo School Project.

Started in 2008 and focused on

the Mnyakongo Primary School

in Kongwa, Tanzania, the project’s

scope to date has included building

a school library stocked with more

than 8,500 books, helping secure

electricity and running water for the

campus and buying goats to provide

milk for the school lunch program.

A 2011 Phi Kappa Phi Literacy grant

assisted in the incredible progress of

the initiative, which continues to

expand its efforts each year.

MAKING GREAT STRIDES FOR SACRAMENTOCreated in 2010, Shoes4Sacramento is a grassroots community project that collects new and gently used shoes and redistributes them to those in need in the Sacramento community. Founder Christina Preston, a native of Sacramento and member of

the California State University, Sacramento chapter, began collecting the shoes to

donate to an international disaster relief project. It wasn’t long after that she realized there was a significant local need in the Sacramento community.

Through the assistance of a Love of Learning award, Preston—a 2012

nominee of the Air Force Thunderbirds “Hometown Hero” award—was able to

further develop the project to meet the needs of the local community.

“The money from Phi Kappa Phi was utilized to purchase bins, temporary storage space, and promote the project,” said Preston. “It was a big help.” Preston has since partnered with local Girl Scout troops, the Sacramento police department and Mothers Against Drunk Driving, among other community organizations as a way to continually expand the project and support the Sacramento community.

MULTIPLE PERSPEC TIVESRaven Kapphahn has dreams of becoming a global social worker aiding women, children and families. During spring 2012, Kapphahn traveled to Tampere, Finland, partly on a Phi Kappa Phi Study Abroad Grant, visiting a daycare center, substance abuse clinic, hospitals and other facilities providing social services.

“My school offers courses about society, culture, and families that I have taken, but you can learn only so much from a book, lecture, or movie,” said Kapphahn. “The knowledge and experience I need to be a global social worker can’t be attained merely in the classroom but must also include traveling to and living in different societies and cultures and witnessing social problems and solutions firsthand.”

This outlook is why Kapphahn journeyed to Accra, Ghana, the summer following her freshman year to investigate social services in the region. Similarly, she is studying at a language institute in Amman, Jordan, for the 2012-2013 academic year through a Boren Scholarship from the National Security Education Program and continuing to diversify her skills and experiences through multiple perspectives.

*Excerpted from “Selfless Outreach,” by Ashley Barnas, Phi Kappa Phi Forum, winter 2012, Vol. 92, No. 4.

SER VICE THROUGH AWARDS & SCHOLARSHIPS

“The money from

Phi Kappa Phi was utilized to purchase

bins, temporary storage space, and promote the project,” said

Preston.

Ultimately, the best part of Phi Kappa Phi is its ability to help others.

VOLUNTEERS IN SERVICE

Phi Kappa Phi is composed of a strong base of volunteers who selflessly devote their

time to building, managing and maintaining successful chapters. It is because of

this incredible commitment that Phi Kappa Phi’s influence continues to grow and be

recognized on more than 300 campuses throughout North America and the Philippines.

The Society commends this hard-working network of volunteers for their continuous

dedication to the chapters, members and campuses that they serve.

“I am so honored to work with my colleagues at

the University of Central Missouri while serving

the chapter and Society. I truly appreciate

the organizational skills and group working

attitudes of the UCM chapter members. The

hard work and inspiring attitudes of these

members have motivated and encouraged me

to strive for new ideas, and I look forward to

my work as chapter president.”

Dr. Keshav Bhattarai President-Elect University of Central Missouri

“Of all of the projects that I manage for my College

and Eastern Kentucky University, Phi Kappa

Phi is by far my favorite. Seeing our students

mature into their very best potential is extremely

gratifying—it motivates me to work harder and

dig deeper to reach even more individuals who

are striving for this level of excellence.”

Kathleen Barr Public Relations Officer Eastern Kentucky University

“Serving as president of my local chapter has been

a great honor and privilege. I was among the first

inductees at the installation of our chapter, so I

have always felt particularly proud to be a member

of Phi Kappa Phi. As an officer during the past six

years, I have had the opportunity to work with

an exceptional team of colleagues and students

to recognize and honor our best and brightest on

their attainment of academic excellence. What a

pleasure it has been to be among the first ones to

congratulate our initiates on their achievement!”

Dr. Lola O. Norris Chapter President Texas A&M International University

“My tenure as a chapter officer has been

extraordinarily fulfilling as I was able to engage

with students and members from all disciplines

not just my own field. I was able to contribute and

lead in building my chapter’s accomplishments,

projects, and membership as well as contribute

service to my university. At points in the year

chapter management can be time consuming and

require significant resources but in the end the

reward of seeing our best and brightest students

has always been worth the effort.”

LEADERSHIP

In 2012, Mary Todd, Ph.D., was named

executive director of The Honor

Society of Phi Kappa Phi, making her

the first woman to lead the 115-year-

old organization and only the 11th

individual to hold the position since

1900. Todd was initiated into Phi Kappa

Phi in 1993 at University of Illinois at

Chicago and later led a successful

petition to bring a chapter of Phi Kappa

Phi to Marshall University. Prior to being

named executive director, Todd served

as the founding dean of the Honors

College at Marshall since 2009.

“Mary brings a wealth of experience and

expertise to the role. She is a scholar,

a leader, and a true public servant. I

believe she has the strengths and

vision needed to strategically move the

Society forward.”

– Diane G. Smathers, Society President

“With Dr. Todd’s guidance, Phi Kappa Phi

can face its future with confidence as it

honors academic excellence, continues

to grow in members, and provides

service to others.”
