INTRODUCTION
Alone among her sister states, Texas enjoys the distinction
of having been an independent republic. Assigning the inade-
quacy of the schools provided by the Mexican government as one
of the causes of revolution, the new Republic, as soon as its indes
pendence was assured, was confronted with the necessity of es-
tablishing an efl‘icient system of public schools. It so happens
that the University of Texas was the first portion of this system
to receive attention in the halls of legislation. On November 11,
1837', eighteen months after the victory of San J acinto, Mr. Kel-
sey P. Douglass, of N acogdoches, made a motion in the Congress
of the Republic to establish the University.
Forty-six years were destined to pass before the University
was opened to students, but during this long interval the insti-
tution was never quite forgotten by the leaders of Texas thought.
The Constitution of the State requires that the University be
of the first class, and this mandate has been obeyed with per-
fect fidelity in aspiration and with reasonable fidelity in fact.
As a consequence, the United Chapters of Phi Beta Kappa placed
at the University, in 1905, the Alpha of Texas.
Though somewhat removed geographically from her Sister
chapters, Alpha of Texas is close to them in devotion to scholar-
ship and to high ideals. She strives to hold aloft in her com-
munity the banner of high intellectual achievement, hoping
thereby in some measure to quicken the spiritual life of the
people in whose University she lives and prospers.
HISTORY OF PHLBETAK’A'PPA
The Phi Beta Kappa Society was organized at the College of
William and Mary, Williamsburg, Va., December 5, 1776. It
is recorded in the Old minutes (lost till 1849 and printed in
1895) that, at the beginning, “a happy spirit and resolution. . . .
prevailed,” and “that in every design or attempt, whether great
or small, we ought to invoke the Deity.” At first the Society
was simply a private debating club, and the choice of a Greek
motto seems to have been accidental. As was proper in the
little village, where, but a Short time before, Jefferson and other
Virginia patriots had assembled, the subjects for debate were
Often political, and “Whether a Wise State Hath Any Interest-
Nearer at Heart Than the Education of Youth,” “Whether the
Execution of Charles I was J ustyfyable,” “Whether Duelling
Ought to Have Toleration,” “Whether Poligamy is a Dictate of
Nature,” “Whether Avarice or Luxury is more Beneficial to a
Republic,” “Whether Brutus was J ustyfyable in Killing Caesar,”
were some of the formidable “matters of argumentation” and
“opposite composition.” As has been said, “it is evident that the
early Phi Beta Kappas felt that there was a place for the scholar
in politics,” and the roster of the Society, from the Revolution
down, reveals the names of many familiar to students of Amer-
ican history. To the call for other chapters, the original one
nobly responded with: “It is repugnant to the liberal principles
of society that they Should be confined to any place, men or
description of men, but that they should be extended to the wise
and virtuous of every degree and of whatever country.” It was
not till 1875, however, that women were first admitted to Phi
Beta Kappa (by the Alpha of Vermont), and it is to be wondered
if those young and gallant colonial Virginians would have re-
garded girls, not only as virtuous, but also as wise.
Founded before them, it has happened that Phi Beta Kappa
has become the parent of the numerous Greek-letter fraterni-
ties which are now so conspicuous a part of American college
life. The general fraternities have paid less and less attention
to scholarship and more and more to social and other consid-
erations, While the reverse has been the case with Phi Beta
Kappa. None Of the fraternities has kept up the debating fea-
ture, which was formerly so prominent a feature of their meet-
ings. During the first four years of its existence at Williams-
8 PHI BETA KAPPA
burg, Phi BetgKappa developed most Of the details of the ordi-
nary college fraternities of today. The fifty members of the
mother chapter had their grip, their seal, their motto in Greek,
their initiation service, their oath of fidelity, their colors, their
constitution, their mysterious badge which used the stars as
symbols of high aspiration. The “frat” whistle, now used even
by sororities, seems, however, not to have been thought of by the
original fifty. ‘
On January 8, 1781, the arrival of the British fleet caused
the members to suspend operations and to seal up their records.
This fleet, bearing Benedict Arnold, among' others, seems there-
fore to have been the earliest anti-fraternity movement in the
history of the world! After the Revolutionary War, no attempt
was made to revive the chapter till 1849, when Peyton Short,
the last president in 17 81, became the connecting link between
the Old and the new chapter. In 1861, the chapter was again
broken up, and was not revived till 1875.
Many distinguished names are to be found among the first
fifty members of the mother chapter. Nearly all were in the
Continental army, eight were in the convention which ratified
the Constitution of the United States, five were members Of the
United States House of Representatives, two of the United States
Senate, two of the United States Supreme Court, one of the two
being John Marshall. Williamsburg, the cradle of Phi Beta
Kappa, has also been called the cradle of the Revolution. At
Williamsburg, Patrick Henry delivered his great philippic against
the Stamp Act; at Williamsburg, Dabney Carr proposed the com-
mittee of correspondence, which was the first step in the union
of the Colonies; at William'sburg met the great Virginia con-
vention which, after dissolving all connection between Virginia
and Great Britain, directed its delegates to move that Congress
should declare the Colonies free and independent States; at Wil-
liamsburg, a few months after this convention adjourned, in the
Raleigh Tavern (burned 1859), where Jefferson debated politics
and danced with Virginia girls, the Phi Beta Kappa was born.
In 1907, at Williamsburg, met the Ninth Triennial Conclave, and
in its honor was rung the old Liberty Bell of Virginia, which has
been ringing there at appropriate times for the last one hundred
and fifty years.
Elisha Parmele, a graduate of Harvard in 17 7 9, was one of
the original fifty at William and Mary, where he was then study-
ing. Upon his return north, he-was authorized to found the Alpha
ALPHA OF TEXAS 9
Of Massachusetts at Harvard, and the Alpha of Connecticut at
Yale. These two chapters were founded sometime in 1780 or
1781. In 1787, the two northern chapters founded the Alpha of
New Hampshire at Dartmouth College, and for thirty years these
three northern chapters formed the Society. As a result of the
Morgan craze against Free Masonry, in 1881, the Harvard chap-
ter abandoned the oath of secrecy, and persuaded the Yale and
Dartmouth chapters to do likewise.
During the thirty years between 1787 and 1817, the Society
became more and more a union of scholars and less and less a
mere social club. The annual Phi Beta Kappa poem and Ora-
tion were prominent features of the activity of the Society.
Steadily preserving high scholarship as a standard of admission,
while not neglecting other qualifications, to the Yale, Harvard,
and Dartmouth chapters were added Union in 1817, Bowdoin in
1825, Brown in 1880, Trinity in 1845, Wesleyan in 1845, Western
Reserve in 1847, Vermont in 1848, Alabama in 1851, Amherst in
1858, Kenyon in 1858, New York University in 1858, Marietta
in 1860, Williams. in 1864, New York City College in 1867, Mid-
dlebury in 1868, Rutgers in 1869, Columbia in 1869, Hamilton in
1870, Hobart in 1871, Colgate in 1878, Cornell in 1882.
These twenty-five chapters formed a closer organization in
1888, “the United Chapters of Phi Beta Kappa,” with a Council
which meets triennially. Since 1888, sixty-eight chapters have
been established.
At the present time, therefore, there are ninety-three chap-
ters, with, it is estimated, 89,000 living members, 27,000 men
and 12,000 women. During the last Six years, nearly 12,000
members have been added, about evenly divided between the two
sexes. Alpha of Texas is Sixty-third in the order of foundation.
The Society is now thoroughly national in character, and will
establish chapters in all American colleges and universities as
fast as the institutions attain to the Phi Beta Kappa standard.
All institutions not having chapters apply for a charter as soOn
as there is a reasonable chance of the request being granted.
In fact, the Society is without a rival in its field, Sigma Xi and
other professional honor societies having arisen to occupy the
technological and professional schools which are not entered by
Phi Beta Kame- Thsse haw sessile are Pot msteelly ex-
clusive, however, and members of one are free to become mem-
bers of the other. ‘
10 PHI BETA KAPPA
In each state, the chapter first established is called Alpha,
the second Beta, and SO on down the Greek alphabet. In 1881,
the Harvard chapter celebrated its hundredth anniversary by
inviting the other chapters to meet in Cambridge for the pur-
pose of forming a closer national association. AS a result of
this and later meetings, the Council of the United Chapters was
formed, and held its first triennial meeting at Saratoga in Sep-
tember, 1888. The thirteenth triennial meeting of the Council
took place at Cambridge, Mass., September 9-10, 1919.
As constituted today, Phi Beta Kappa is a collegiate honor
society, which is private but not secret. Eligibility depends on
relative and on absolute class standing. Not more than one-
fourth of any graduating class may be selected. At Harvard,
only about one-Sixteenth of the class is admitted. At the Uni-
versity Of Texas, not more than one-eighth may be admitted, and
those admitted in April must have at least a B average and must
be candidates for the Bachelor of Arts degree in June, or else
graduates of the previous August.
The list of names of some of the Older chapters sounds very
familiar to American ears, and SO distinguished is the Society
that membership is highly prized. As it is the oldest, so it_is
the largest of the Greek-letter societies. Membership in other
societies does not exclude from Phi Beta Kappa, which admits
only on a basis of scholastic merit, and which is not a rival of
the social fraternities nor much akin to them.
Philosophies Biou Kybe'metes is the motto of the Society, which,
being interpreted, means “Philosophy the Guide of Life.” The
badge of the Society is an old-fashioned watch key bearing, on
one Side, three stars, the Greek letters Phi, Beta, Kappa, the date
Dec. 5, 1776, and a hand pointing to the.stars; and, on the other
Side, the letters S. P., the name of the college, the name Of the
member, and the date of membership. The meaning of the S. P.
is buried in some mystery, and one small secret therefore remains
to the Phi Beta Kappa! Societas Philosophorum, Senatus Popu-
lusque, Spiritus Populi, Salus Patriae, and even Sapient'ia Prin-
ceps have been suggested, and one irreverent Texan has deemed
the mysterious letters prophetic and significant of the Southern
Pacific! Amid such confusing possibilities, it is restful to have
the Greek motto (translated) and to know that “a love of wisdom
is a guide of life.” A recent careful examination of the Old
records indicates that Societas Philosopho'rum is the correct in-
terpretation.

guished positions in all fields of high éndeavor are so numerous

ALPHA OF TEXAS 21
HISTORY OF ALPHA OF TEXAS
During the late nineties, the Rev. Edward Bingham Wright,
D.D., for many years pastor of the First Presbyterian Church of
Austin and a member of the Alpha of Ohio of the Class of 1859,
began to consider the possibility of securing a chapter of the
Phi Beta Kappa for the University of Texas. With the excep-
tion, of course, of William and Mary College and of Johns Hop-
kins University, no southern institution was then represented on
the roll of chapters. Early in 1901, Mr. Wright put himself in
communication with the national officers of the Society. He was
ably seconded by Professor William T. Mather, a member Of
Massach setts Beta of the Class of 1886, and by other members
living in Austin and in various Texas towns. Ignorance of some
of the details connected with placing a petition for a charter in
proper form before the United Chapters prevented the University
from being considered at the Seventh Triennial Session of the
National Council in 1901. During the ensuing three years, Pro-
fessor Mather spared no labor in getting the application, accom-
panied by the proper exhibits and by numerous endorsements of
other chapters, into proper shape; and at the Eighth Triennial
Session of the United Chapters the charter Of the Alpha of Texas
was unanimously voted on September 7, 1904.
The charter members, twelve in number, met at Austin on
October 14, 1904, appointed a committee to draw up a consti-
tution and by-laws, and voted (regarding the Class of 1904 and
all previous classes as one class) to elect previous graduates of
the University to membership upon the terms to be fixed for
future graduates. In accordance with the national regulations,
only graduates of the College of Arts are eligible for regular
active membership.
During the fall of 1904, the constitution and by-laws were
prepared and the records of the former graduates of the College
of Arts (Academic Department) were carefully examined; and
on February 2, 1905, the charter members adopted the consti-
tution and by-laws and elected seventy-nine persons to member-
ship. Fifty-Six of these seventy-nine were elected on account of
obtaining the Bachelor’s degree with high rank, twelve on account
of Obtaining the Master’s degree with distinction, five on account
of taking with high credit the Doctorate at institutions of the
first rank, and six honorary members not graduates Of the Uni—
versity on account of special merit.
22 PHI BETA KAPPA
An examination of the following complete list of the members
of the Alpha of Texas (exclusive of “affiliated” members who
have been “received” from other chapters) will reveal the fact
that very few honorary members have thus far been elected, and
that the vast majority of the members owe their election to high
undergraduate records. Not more than three honorary mem-
berS may be elected in one year, and admission by means Of the
Master’s degree has not been possible Since 1905.
In selecting the members from year to year, the records of the
graduating class in Arts are gone over carefully in April. The
highest eighth of the class or less is Selected and voted upon at
the April meeting Of the Society. After the election, an initia-
tory reception is held in May. The annual business meeting is
held at Commencement. A few of the older alumni elected in
1905, totally ignorant perhaps of Phi Beta Kappa and possibly
regarding the election as a lure to extract an initiation fee for
some unworthy purpose, failed to respond to a letter from the
Secretary. Since 1905, however, membership has been eagerly
Sought, and no one elected to membership has failed to accept
promptly.
Thus far, Miles J. Breuer, 1911, has been the only member of
Alpha of Texas to attempt a Phi Beta Kappa poem, and the only
orators have been President Charles F. Thwing, of Western Re-
serve, in 1905; Dean L. B. R. Briggs, Of Harvard, in 1907 ; Dean
Shailer Mathews, of the University of Chicago, in 1908; and Pres-
ident Henry Louis Smith, of Davidson College, in 1910. Short
speeches to the initiates have been delivered occasionally by the
presidents of the chapter, but that of E. W. Fay is the only one
that has been printed.
Alpha of Texas, with 844 members who have become members
of Phi Beta Kappa through her invitation, is now firmly estab-
lished at the University and forms a strong incentive to good
scholarship. The “Barb-Frat” controversy leaves her undis-
turbed. “Barbs” enter more numerously than “Greeks,” and
girls than boys. Each year the names of the initiates for the
year appear on the Commencement program. Already in the
list of members will be found the names of one United States
Senator, one member of the Valuation Board of the Interstate
Commerce Commission, nine professors in various universities,
five or six highly successful research men, numerous teachers,
one clergyman, one dean, two doctors, and four or five lawyers.
The coming years will not only lengthen the list, but will also add
ALPHA OF TEXAS 28
to the records of those now upon it. Because of admission to
Phi Beta Kappa elsewhere, before the Alpha of Texas was estab-
lished, the list lacks several names that would have added to its
credit.
Nearly a third of the voting faculty and about a fourth of the
entire faculty of the College of Arts are members of Phi Beta
Kappa.
