Excerpt from Phi Beta Kappa: Alpha of Wisconsin; Catalogue This founder was John Heath. One of his ideas may be imagined from an early rule: The least appearance of intoxica tion or disorder of any single member by liquor, at a session, subjects him to the penalty of ten shillings.

Yale chapter with the words, Whereas the Society is desirous that the Phi Beta Kappa should be extended to each of the United States.
