About

Phi Kappa Theta (PKT), at the University of Wisconsin-Madison, has the distinct role of teaching and encouraging our members to live out their Christian faith.  It is our goal to be a light to this campus and to reach out to those around us who may stray from or want to further explore their faith.  PKT is composed of five pillars: Spiritual, Leadership, Fraternal, Intellectual, and Social.  These pillars act as a foundation for developing our members and their future success after college.  The brothers and friendships made will always be there to support and encourage each brother to grow as Christian men.
