Pi Kappa Delta Details
Pi Kappa Delta is the oldest national collegiate forensic organization in the United States. More about us:John A. Schields and Egbert R. Nichols founded the organization in 1913. Both were debaters and felt the need to create an organization for colleges across the country to recognize orators and debaters. They created a Constitution and Bylaws with official rules and regulations and the Pi Kappa Delta honorary key soon thereafter. Today, the honor society consists of speech and debate educators, students, and alumni from across the country. The name Pi Kappa Delta was chosen because it comprised the first letters of the Greek phrase Peitho Kale Dikaia, "The art of persuasion, beautiful and just." The essential purpose of the organization was to bestow an honorary key on orators, debaters, and coaches. Through jewels, they showed the distinction of each member in terms of their order and degree.Hope to see you at Nationals at Hofstra University Spring 2019!
