The centennial anniversary of the founding of Phi Delta Kappa will be celebrated throughout 2006. The first of the three fraternities that amalgamated to form PDK was founded on 24 January 1906 at Indiana University. Throughout this year, PDK will highlight its centennial with special features in the Phi Delta Kappan and the PDK Connection, special events, press releases, and activities, including a premier Summit on Public Education in Washington, D.C., in October. Please join us in celebrating our association's rich history and exciting future! |
