That was back on October 5, 1904 at New York University. Today the need for this exciting and productive combination of values is just as great. A. K. Psi is among the twenty largest national college fraternities with over 170,000 members, including 4,500 faculty - most of whom are successful business executives. It is a complete, well integrated, capably administered national business fraternity standing for the highest ideals of conduct and achievement in university and professional life.<br> <br> Alpha Kappa Psi attracts a high-quality student. The average grade point is over 3.0 and members join the fraternity to enhance their business education. The chapters conduct professional programs with both educators and businessmen. To further supplement the traditional classroom experience, there are business field trips, seminars, career activities, research surveys and other professional events. In addition, service to the school and community is encouraged.</font></td> </tr> <tr> <td width="100%" align="left" colspan="3"><h3><font face="Arial, helvetica, sans serig" size="2" color="#000080"><img src="picture_images/bar.gif" alt="bar.gif (970 bytes)" width="100%" height="10"></font><font color="#000080"><br> @ George Mason University...</font></h3> <p><font color="#000080">The Pi Sigma chapter of Alpha Kappa Psi was chartered at George Mason in May of 1999 with 32 brothers.
