The Kappa of Texas chapter — the society’s 265th — was installed during a campus ceremony featuring former President Bush and Texas A&M and Phi Beta Kappa officials. The affiliation is a major milestone toward A&M’s goal of becoming one of the 10 best public institutions by 2020, university officials said.

Nothing like being ahead of the curve.

When I was at A&M in the mid-70's, there was a Phi Beta Kappa chapter (not a member, tho). My father-in-law was class of '58 and was a member of Phi Beta Kappa. Did A&M lose its chapter sometime back for academic shortcomings?
