Talk:Phi Kappa Tau

message: How could ex-Phrenocon member found DTD and SAE?  Both of those fraternities were founded in the 1800s and Phrenocon didn't come around until 1906....maybe I am missing something.--Thunder 20:14, 6 January 2006 (UTC)

message: Phi Kappa Tau has no official mascot.  Read the Ritual (assuming you are a member) and you will find no reference to a mascot.  The unicorn does appear in some Phi Tau symbolism (pre-1947 coat of arms and Grand Seal) but is not a mascot.  The only reason I didn't delete the entire reference is that I am aware that some chapters do consider the Unicorn to be the fraternity's mascot but it is not a widely held or nationally-sanctioned practice.  I'd prefer dropping this reference entirely.205.188.116.197 21:53, 25 March 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: Mascot

message: I have also heard that the national mascot is the bullfrog, but that is only something I have heard at my chapter and never from any other Phi Tau.
Our chapter continues this claim as well, but no one's sure where the bullfrog came from...what chapter are you from?

message: Here's what we know about Jeffrey Miller and Phi Tau.  His older brother is a member of the Phi Tau Chapter at Michigan State.  Jeff pledged Phi Tau (the national fraternity has his pledge form in the archives) as the chapter was going out of business.  According to a letter in the Phi Tau archives from his brother, Jeff was initiated but the form and fees were never sent to the national fraternity so he never made it on to the rolls officially.DIDouglass 01:09, 17 October 2006 (UTC)

message: Someone keeps changing Roland Maxwell's middle initial to "T."  You're going to have to provide some documentation other than the published histories (Ball, 1996 and Anson, 1957) about this.  Maxwell rarely used his middle initial and I can't tell you what his middle name was but the published histories indicate the initial is "W."  Someone also changed the reference to the date November 19, 1950 from "written" to "adopted".  In fact, the creed probably never was opficially "adopted" but maxwell did write it between the Bowling Green chartering and a foundation meeting in Columbus, Ohio.  So "written" is more appropriate.  By the way, the creed was influenced by the Sigma Chi Creed written by George Ade.  DIDouglass 23:25, 30 November 2006 (UTC)
