Phi Beta Sigma Fraternity, Incorporated, was founded in 1914 on the principles of Brotherhood, Scholarship, and Service. For over 100 years the fraternity has upheld the national motto of “Culture for Service, service for humanity” through community engagement, academic excellence, and notable involvement.

The Kappa Chi chapter was chartered at the University of Tennessee in 1979 with the motto “The ball is rolling.” Brothers have kept the ball rolling as both leaders on campus and after graduation as coaches, engineers, and more. This past year Jakevious Rosser and Anthony Tom were recipients of the Dr. Dudley E. Flood Scholarship and 2021 ΦΒΣ Scholarship respectively.

From its inception, the founders also conceived Phi Beta Sigma as a mechanism to deliver services to the general community.

Here, at the University of Tennessee, Knoxville, the Kappa Chi chapter of Phi Beta Sigma Fraternity, Inc. continues to follow the example of our esteemed founders and brothers all over the nation by upholding our fraternal principles to create a better community and a better world.
