History
The Epsilon Theta Chapter of Phi Delta Kappa was established at St. Cloud State in February 1961. Phi Delta Kappa is an international professional honorary society to support teachers and school leaders in the teaching profession. The chapter was, per se, not a student organization but for teachers already employed in the profession in central Minnesota. It is unknown whether or not the chapter is still active.
Another chapter of Phi Delta Kappa, Beta Mu, existed before the Epsilon Theta chapter. The earliest mention of this chapter was in the January 13, 1953 issue of the Chronicle.
