The Iowa Gamma Chapter was chartered in 1877 and was the first sorority on Iowa State's campus. Pi Beta Phi's values are integrity, lifelong commitment, honor and respect, philanthropic service to others, personal and intellectual growth, and sincere friendship. Our values are at the core of everything we do as Pi Phis and are part of what brings us together. This chapter is full of members who are passionate, ambitious, and determined to make an impact by being involved in both the Sorority and Fraternity Community as well as the ISU community and Ames community.

Pi Beta Phi has been one of the most impactful, powerful and transformative experiences of my life. As a member and leader of Pi Phi, I can soundly say that I am surrounded by some of the most genuine, caring, intelligent, and humorous women I know. Pi Beta Phi is and will always be a large factor in shaping the woman that I am today through building my confidence and leadership abilities. I know that my collegiate journey would and could not be the same if it was not for the extraordinary women of Pi Beta Phi. I am proud to be a member of the Iowa Gamma Chapter of Pi Beta Phi, and I will always hold 208 Ash Ave in my heart. #PPLM
