Rush Skulls is an exciting time for prospective members to engage with the Phi Kappa Sigma Alpha Xi chapter at Purdue University. During this period, we invite students to experience our values of brotherhood, leadership, and community service through various events and activities. Potential new members will have the opportunity to meet current brothers, learn about our history and culture, and discover what sets Skulls apart. We emphasize integrity, academic success, and personal growth, ensuring that each member not only enhances their college experience but also builds lifelong friendships. As we welcome a new generation into our fraternity, we look forward to fostering meaningful connections and growing our legacy.

To incoming prospective new members, we here at Phi Kappa Sigma would like to invite you join us on a  life-changing journey within our walls here at Phi Kappa Sigma. Colloquially known as Skulls around the Purdue community, we aim to uphold our core values of: trust, honor, respect, knowledge, wisdom, responsibility, integrity. 

We commit to the value of TRUST, the foundation of a relationship based on a belief in oneself as well as others, which is earned and strengthened through experience. The value of trust is found in our reliance on each other and enables an open comfort in interacting with our brothers.

We commit to the value of HONOR, staying true to a set of higher standards and morals in the face of adversity. Membership in Phi Kappa Sigma means a commitment to leading an honorable life.

We commit to the value of RESPECT, which begins with yourself and the practice of the golden rule, “Do unto others as you would have them do unto you.” This statement is the acceptance of the ideals of others. In order to move forward as a brotherhood, we must continue to consider each other’s viewpoints. 

We commit to the value of KNOWLEDGE, the acquisition of thought, theory and principles following in the footsteps of our founding fathers in accordance with our oath of brotherhood. With this knowledge, we will come closer to self-discovery, improving society, and translating knowledge into power. 

We commit to the value of WISDOM, a virtue gained through experiences of self and others. Wisdom is the application of knowledge and past experiences to make decisions regardless of the situation. Through sharing wisdom, a bond is formed between young and old, teacher and student, bringing us together. 

We commit to the value of RESPONSIBILITY by being reliable in fulfilling our Fraternity's objectives and personal obligations and enduring the consequences of our actions. 

We commit to the value of INTEGRITY, our inner foundation for holding true to our values of trust, honor, respect, knowledge, wisdom, and responsibility, which guide us to make the best decisions. 

Phi Kappa Sigma extends a warm invitation to all prospective new members who resonate with our core values of trust, honor, respect, knowledge, wisdom, responsibility, and integrity. As Skulls, we embark on a transformative journey within our walls at Purdue, dedicated to personal growth and the pursuit of excellence. By fostering an environment of trust, upholding honorable standards, practicing respect, embracing knowledge and wisdom, shouldering responsibility, and embodying integrity, we cultivate a brotherhood that thrives on shared experiences and mutual support. If you believe in the power of these principles and seek a fraternity that champions your vision of personal development, we sincerely invite you to join us this Fall and become part of the vibrant Phi Kappa Sigma community. Together, let us shape a future of purpose, growth, and lifelong friendships.
