The Star and Lamp
With a national fraternity, the founders realized the need for open communication between chapters, particularly with Gamma Chapter. The Pi Kappa Phi Fraternity Journal was begun in 1909 with Henry Wagener as editor. In 1911, the fraternity would change the name of its official publication to the Star & Lamp, a name which endures to this day. The Star & Lamp has received numerous awards from the Fraternity Communications Association (FCA), formerly known as the College Fraternity Editors Association (CFEA). In 2005, The Star & Lamp was honored by FCA with the Fred F. Yoder Award, which recognizes the most outstanding magazine for a Greek organization .
