For nearly a century Phi Alpha Thetans have worked to better themselves and their communities. We have worked in local history archives, in local, state, and national parks, as volunteers on campuses, and collected countless materials from our neighbors in the form of interviews and items of historical significance and made sure these are passed on to future generations.
If you are new to Phi Alpha Theta, we urge to you get involved through your local chapter. A great first step is to attend and present a paper your local regional conference. Regional conferences are a great way to meet likeminded members of your community who love history and strive to promote its continued study. You can find a list of our regional conferences here. Every two years, Phi Alpha Theta sponsors a Biennial Convention, where students from all across the country come together to present their research and network with fellow history students and faculty. The next national conference will be held January 4-7, 2023. The Call for Papers will be issued in spring 2022 and details will be posted on our website very soon so check back often!
Phi Alpha Theta offers its members many opportunities for scholarships and awards. For listing click here.
