The Phi Beta Kappa Society

Alpha Chapter of Minnesota,

University of Minnesota Twin Cities Campus

PBK and the U of M

The charter for the University of Minnesota chapter of Phi Beta Kappa is granted by the Phi Beta Kappa Society, and is held by the chapter itself, not by the University that serves as host. As host it provides access to student information for appropriate faculty and staff so that the chapter can identify candidates for election to membership, a website, and other modest assistance.

Most important for the chapter, both President Robert Bruininks and CLA Dean Steven Rosenstone are enthusiastic supporters of the chapter for the recognition that it gives to our best liberal arts students.

The table below lists active members of the Alpha Chapter, that is those faculty and staff members who were themselves elected to Phi Beta Kappa, generally as undergraduates, and who have agreed to assist with the election of new student members (members in course.)
