Pi Kappa Phi - The Star and Lamp

The Star and Lamp

With a national fraternity, the founders realized the need for open communication between chapters, particularly with Gamma Chapter. The Pi Kappa Phi Fraternity Journal was begun in 1909 with Henry Wagener as editor. In 1911, the fraternity would change the name of its official publication to the Star & Lamp, a name which endures to this day. The Star & Lamp has received numerous awards from the Fraternity Communications Association (FCA), formerly known as the College Fraternity Editors Association (CFEA). In 2005, The Star & Lamp was honored by FCA with the Fred F. Yoder Award, which recognizes the most outstanding magazine for a Greek organization .

Famous quotes containing the words star and/or lamp:

    Our star was brighter perhaps when it had water in it.
    Now there is no question even of that, but only
    Of holding on to the hard earth so as not to get thrown off,
    With an occasional dream, a vision ...
    John Ashbery (b. 1927)

    With silent lips. “Give me your tired, your poor,
    Your huddled masses yearning to breathe free,
    The wretched refuse of your teeming shore.
    Send these, the homeless, tempest-tost to me.
    I lift my lamp beside the golden door!”
    Emma Lazarus (1849–1887)
