Excerpt from Phi Delta Kappa: History and Directory, 1906 1912 The history of Phi Delta Kappa has been characterized by an impulse of spontaneity and co-operation. The expression of her ideals, the formulation of her policies, and the organization of her plans, though springing from diverse and various sources, are already becoming integrated into a harmonious movement. Already there is such a definiteness and stability in the organization as to commend the organization to the educational world. This spontaneous growth has resulted from a clear-cut need for an organization of men who possess relatively mature ideas concerning the profession of education and who show a serious attitude toward its work. From the various accounts received from local historians, it is seen that certain rather interesting purposes prompted the men in the formation of the clubs, societies or orders which finally were amalgamated into Phi Delta Kappa. In the first place, there was a desire to secure a body of men who were congenial and who at the same time appreciated the need of an attitude of co-operative endeavor, coupled with good fellowship, in promoting education as a profession. In all cases, high standards were espoused for membership. In the second place, the purpose in organizing these men was to promote a wholesome interaction between theoretical education on the one hand and practical education on the other. In the third place, the fraternal and social spirit was fully recognized. By the cultivation of this attitude in departments of education, it was purposed to foster an exchange of spirit among members, so that opportunity might be given for training in leadership.
