Letter To StudentThank you for expressing an interest in starting a chapter of Phi Epsilon Kappa (PEK) at Valparaiso University. Attached are several files, which will provide some information and request some information from you regarding the potential chapter. We have found that many chapters stem from a successful majors; however, this is not a prerequisite. The school must offer a major or minor in kinesiology, health, physical education, recreation, dance, athletic training, sport management, allied health, or a related field. The individual student must be a major or minor in one of the above areas, be enrolled in school at least one semester, and must have achieved a "C"; average in all work taken. If the local chapter desires to raise these requirements, we encourage the chapter to do so. A faculty member from the school must be willing to accept responsibility to act as Chapter Advisor.
NOTE: from the Department Chair 2/22/21 - VU has elected to UPGRADE the selection criteria from a "C" average to a 3.2 gpa. This fraternity has been dormant for a long time and we just re-established last year. The requirements are 3.2 GPA cumulative and within the major; 60 credit minimum and 9 credits within major.
Note 2: The Department Chair is requesting the list include Sophomores, so the criteria was further reduced for the credit minimum to 30.
