Phi Kappa Sigma was the original name of Phi Kappa, founded at Brown University, from 1889 until 1900. It was originally intended to remain a local club and the Greek letters stood for Fraternity of Catholic Students. When they determined to become a national fraternity they had to change the name because a Phi Kappa Sigma already existed. When Phi Kappa merged with Theta Kappa Phi in 1959 the name changed to Phi Kappa Theta. This information is per Phi Kappa's entry in an earlier Baird's Manual.
