PHI BETA SIGMA
FRATERNITY, INC.

Our History
Phi Beta Sigma Fraternity, Inc. was founded at Howard University in Washington, D.C., on January 9, 1914, by three African American male students. The founders, Honorable A. Langston Taylor, Honorable Leonard F. Morse, and Honorable Charles I. Brown, wanted to organize a Greek-letter fraternity that viewed itself as one with a greater brotherhood devoted to the "inclusive we" rather than the "exclusive we."

Our Mission
The brothers of Phi Beta Sigma are the Fraternity’s most valuable resource and strength. They are the primary means by which the Phi Beta Sigma objectives will be achieved. To accomplish the Fraternity’s objectives, systems must be instituted that effectively embody “Culture For Service and Service For Humanity” and promote brotherhood, scholarship, and service.
