Pi Beta Phi was a little more than five years old when one of its
most unique traditions was born. The Pi Phi Cookie Shine owes its
beginnings to the Richardson sisters and John Fraser, the Chancellor of
the University of Kansas. Sara Richardson from Lawrence, Kansas, became a charter member of
Illinois Beta Chapter at Lombard College when it was chartered in April
1872. Sara’s three sisters, Alma, Florence and May, were students at the
University of Kansas. Sara heard through the grapevine that a few
Kansas men had formed a Beta Theta Pi chapter in the spring of 1873 and
she encouraged her sisters to start a chapter of her beloved fraternity.
Kansas Alpha was chartered on April 1, 1873. The chapter’s first
social event took place several weeks later in June. The party at the
Richardson home honored Sara for her help in establishing the chapter.
Among the guests was the University’s Chancellor John Fraser, a native
of Scotland. When he saw the spread of refreshments, Fraser declared it a
“Cookie Shine,” his name for any informal social gathering brought
together by accident or design. The name so captured the imaginations of
the Pi Phis that they immediately adopted it as their own.
