Mission Statement The
Association supports liberal education and life-long learning by providing
high quality programs and interaction opportunities for its members, and
scholarships for students.
Who we are: Phi Beta Kappa Alumni in Southern California (Alpha Assocation), founded in 1918, is the largest Phi Beta Kappa alumni association in the nation. It currently has almost 2,000 members in Los Angeles, Ventura, Orange, San Bernardino, and Riverside Counties. For an overview of the origin and history of Alpha Association, please click on History.

What We Do: Events Each year, the Association hosts a series of cultural events that feature well-known speakers, visits to museums and historical sites, theatrical performances, and a variety of concerts and other musical events. For more information about recent and forthcoming events, please click on the Events tab on the navigation bar.
Scholarships We also sponsor three scholarship programs. One is for deserving high school students from inner-city schools to help them defray the costs of enrolling in college. The second is a series of International Scholarships awarded to outstanding foreign graduate students completing their doctoral studies at USC, UCLA, UC Irvine, UC Riverside, and Claremont Graduate University. Last but far from least are our Graduate Study Awards. Each of the ten Phi Beta Kappa chapters in Southern California annually selects one of its initiates to receive this award, which will facilitate his or her graduate study.
