House Tour
Meet our House Mom and Cook!
House Mom: Jan Tidball joined the brothers of Phi Kappa Theta as the house mother in February 2009. She moved into the house and quickly made an great impact on the guys on the house. Jan assists the men of Phi Kappa Theta in their day-to-day lives, teaches ettiqute to the men, plans alumni and parent's activities and helps the house cook. We love having House Mom Jan around and look forward to many years together!
Cook: Sandi Ruthsford has been with the chapter for almost a decade. She has served as the house cook and does an awesome job! Sandi acts as second mother to many of the men and we enjoy every meal she serves us! Thanks Sandi for the amazing food and friendship!

About the house...
The only way to see that living in the house is the best option is to make a visit. However, we will list some of the best benefits that we see of living in the Phi Kap house:
- Hired cook that provides meals Monday through Friday. Kitchen supervisors make sure food is provided on the weekends. All this is included on the house bill.
- The recreation room is one-of-a-kind. A big screen HDTV, foosball table, pool table and leather furniture are all a part of the perks of the rec room.
- Convenient location from campus. The house is a 5-minute walk from campus, making it one of the closest Greek houses to the Union and Architecture buildings.
- Study Help. Study sessions are helpful, but even outside of those sessions, men in the house are available to tutor members that are having trouble with a certain content area.
- Interaction with alumni. Many alumni make frequent visits to the house. Phi Kappa Theta is fortunate to have a rich history, well over 80 years of tradition at Kansas State.
