Early in the spring semester of 2017, Jake Mankin, a respected brother of the Phi Kappa Psi Kansas Alpha Chapter had a temporary lapse in judgement, when he and fellow pledge brother were found violating fraternity policy. Though, the consensus is that Brother Mankin’s mistake was in large part, a result of being in the wrong place, at the wrong time.

Brother Mankin, is an exceptional model of the Phi Kappa Psi values, as a man that never ceases to give 110% in order to better those around him. Constantly demonstrating what it means to be a Kansas Alpha by fostering better students, brothers, and friends. Brother Mankin has chosen a life of serving others before himself and from the day Brother Mankin left, he has made it clear that it is his goal to live in-house with his brothers once again.

In times of moral uncertainty, it is imperative that we consult the wise words of our Creed, written by John Henry Frizzell and Kent Christopher Owen. As explicitly stated in the Creed of Phi Kappa Psi “I believe that I am honor bound… to help and forgive my Brothers; to discharge promptly all just debts.” If these words hold any truth to you as a Phi Kappa Psi, you will find it in your heart to allow our brother to come home.

I have been hearing from so many people who remember the specific ways Jake improved our house culture before he was forced out. His dedication to our brotherhood remains unchanged and he deserves the chance to live among us again. We are continuing to push for a formal review of his standing because our creed demands that we look after our own.

Reaching this level of support confirms that our brotherhood believes in the values we swore to uphold. Jake belongs back in this house and your commitment proves that forgiveness remains at the core of our chapter.

Jake is such a great guy to everyone he meets! I think he has learned from his mistake and should be able to live in the house again.

Jake be served being in the house more than anyone else. I made a mistake but in our creed ! It does say to forgive our brothers. Jake is an expectional guy with a school based focus but also is a great example of what a Phi Psi is.

Jake is a very important brother of mine and I would be ecstatic if he was allowed to live in Kansas Alpha again. You’re the man, Jake!

Mankin is a great example of what it means to be a phi psi and has great relationships with all members. Mankin deserves to be reinstated in the house.
