"I... call upon every active member, every alumnus to study, revere, and exemplify in his life and in his attitude towards his brothers the ideals of our fraternity. Let us not make her a mere replica of others. Let us rather introduce into all our activities - social, athletic, intellectual - such a spirit of high purpose, steady effort, brotherly sympathy, unquestioned honor that we shall be pointed out not as fraternity men, but as unique among such - men of Pi Kappa Phi. To further these ends and to make our beloved Pi Kappa Phi glorious and great I pledge myself. I challenge every Pi Kapp to do likewise."

-Brother Pelzer Wagener
