Notable Alumni

There is a long list of famous Phi Kaps, and that’s not surprising. After all, Phi Kappa Sigma is a place that attracted men of character where we learned about fraternity and brotherhood.

Here are just a few of our most prominent alumni:

Tom Wolfe, American author

Wolfe is best known for his novel The Bonfire of the Vanities

John Curley, American journalist, professor, and editor

John is best known for being the first editor of USA Today; and former head of Gannett News. He is currently a Professor, Distinguished Professional in Residence, and Co-Director of the Center for Sports Journalism at Penn State.

Denny Crum, American basketball player and coach

Denny is best known for having served as basketball head coach at the University of Louisville where he won two NCAA Champions, 1980 and 1986.

…the list goes on. 

Here at Psi, we also have many notable alumni.

We’re proud to call these men Brothers.
