Welcome to the official website for the Phi Kappa Tau, Beta Xi chapter at the University of Georgia.  Here you can find information regarding chapter history, current recruitment information, events, photos, and alumni information. The site has been recently created so work with our website staff on any questions, concerns, or glitches that you may find. Phi Kappa Tau was founded in 1906 at Miami University by a group of men who believed that greatness wasn’t exclusively bestowed upon the fraternities already established. In this spirit of collective potential, they formed what would later become known as Phi Kappa Tau. Emerging into its second century of existence, Phi Kappa Tau, also referred to as “Phi Tau,” has chartered more than 170 chapters in almost every state of the union, and has initiated more than 90,000 members. The Beta Xi chapter has been recognized throughout the years as being one of the most distinguished among them all.   Our chapter at the University of Georgia has historically been around since 1949.  As a rechartering colony we, attained well over 50 men and officially rechartered Oct. 22, 2011 (article). Currently, we have 64 undergraduate brothers and are preparing for a big spring rush. Our men participate in a variety of activities, including the Georgia Bass Fishing Team, the Georgia Fencing Team, Georgia Club Baseball, Georgia Club Tennis, Redcoats, and even Varsity Track. Also as a fraternity, we rank among the top ten fraternities for G.P.A. and have been recognized in high regard in the fraternity intramural leagues for frisbee, soccer, and basketball.   During the semester our executive board plans an energized semester filled with socials, date nights, community service, rush, and philanthropic events.  Whether its planning epic formals in Tybee Island, Georgia or getting together an intramural frisbee team, you can bet that our bonds of brotherhood remain as the main element.
