My knowledge of Kappa Alpha Psi Fraternity Inc. is that it was founded January 5th, 1911. The Fraternity was originally chartered under the name Kappa Alpha Nu, which is believed to be in honor the Alpha Kappa Nu club that began in 1903 but was short lived due to few registrants. Kappa Alpha Psi was founded by: Elder Watson Diggs, Ezra Dee Alexander, Byron Kenneth Armstrong, Henry Tourner Asher, Marcus Peter Blakemore, Paul Waymond Caine, George Wesley Edmonds, Guy Levis Grant, Edward Giles Irvin and John Milton Lee. The fraternity was founded on the campus of Indiana University in Bloomington, Indiana. Kappa Alpha Psi Fraternity Inc. has 721 chapters in every state of the United States and has international chapter in various countries
They built a strong and effective force of men dedicated to its cardinal principles of manhood, scholarship, and perseverance. They also developed a program to meet the needs of African Americans in the areas of health, housing, civil rights, and education. Omega Psi Phi is an international fraternity comprising over 700 undergraduate and graduate
Delta Sigma Theta Sorority, Inc. was founded on Sisterhood, Scholarship, and Community Service on January 13th 1913 on the campus of Howard University by 22 collegiate women previous members of Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority, Inc. left the organization after wanting to change the direction of the sorority including the name, colors, motto, creed, and the shield. These 22 women wanted to use their collective strength to promote academic excellence and to provide assistance to those in need. After the idea was rejected by Graduate chapter member Nellie Quander and other graduate members they reorganized under their own sorority known as Delta Sigma Theta. Within that same year Delta Sigma Theta Sorority, Inc. participated in their first public

I am writing this letter to express my interest in your illustrious organization, Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority, Incorporated. I am currently a senior majoring in Criminal Justice, minoring in African American Studies with aspirations of becoming a Social Justice Attorney. Born in the inner city of New York and being raised in the suburbs of Atlanta, I am not your typical Southern Belle or City girl. I like to think of myself as being a fine mix of the two. At a young age my mother groomed me into what she believed a well-rounded lady should be.
According to Kappa Kappa Gamma Fraternity Bylaws, Article XVI. , Section 2., “An association voting to disband shall give three months notice in writing of such intention to the District Director and Alumna Relations Specialist. At the end of this period, provided the request to disband has not been withdrawn, the charter shall be surrendered and the archives be sent to the Fraternity Headquarters. All remaining assets shall be transferred to the Kappa Kappa Gamma Foundation.” When the Alumna Relations Specialist learns of an alumnae association’s desire to disband, she should contact the District Director.
Image a pretty, blonde haired, college girl who isn’t the smartest, and a college guy who drinks too much and wears Sperrys with a Vineyard Vines shirt. Did you imagine these people and associate them with a particular group found on college campuses? Sometimes these stereotypes and and many other stigmas are associated with people in Greek Life. However, ASU’s Panhellenic Association (PHA) holds the National Panhellenic Conference (NPC) sororities on this campus to a higher standard, and the actions of these sororities shed light on some of the false stereotypes associated with them.
Given the initial assessment of Beta Gamma Nu and the goals that I have for the organization, these will be the ways which we will accomplish those goals: When it comes to continue to build deep relationships with other chapters in Multicultural Greek Council (MGC), we will be attempting to reach every organization through socials and workshops around our philanthropy of “B Fit”. Our organization will be hosting a social with Alpha Phi Gamma Multicultural Sorority by playing volleyball with each prospective interest of our organization. This corresponds to being physically and mentally fit and is beneficial to potential members of MGC to learn about other organizations under council. We will also be participating in a Salsa Night with Kappa Delta Chi Multicultural Sorority as a way to practice for our upcoming Fall Ball Suicide Awareness. It is also useful in gaining an appreciation for the culture of salsa and to connect with the
Since the beginning of high school, I have joined numerous of clubs that widely range from music performance to publication. An extracurricular activity that I am passion about the most is French Honor Society. I’ve learned French since I started to learn my mother language- Vietnamese. The country of baguette fascinated my artistic aspect. Everything about this country is magnificent, from the beret to La Tour Eiffel.
My increased desire to become an Alpha Man has been driven by my lifelong history and encounters with many of my past educators that are Alphas. I grew up in a typical underrepresented environment that had a big impact on my everyday life, from drugs, gangs, and a lack of ambition. Somehow that changed when I went to school, there where men in my schools that looked the same as the ones in my community, but the way they dressed and carried themselves was different. I later learned they were men of Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity Inc.
Why I want to be a member of Alpha Phi Alpha I want to become a member of the Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity Incorporation for many reasons. One of the main reasons I would like to be a member, is for the fact that I would like to belong to a brotherhood.
“The chief significance of Alpha Phi Alpha lies in its purpose to stimulate, develop, and cement an intelligent, trained leadership in the unending fight for freedom, equality, and fraternity. Our task is endless.” Jewel Henry Arthur Callis. Since its founding Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity has remained loyal to its ideal of providing advocacy for its community.
but I also believe Delta Sigma Theta Sorority, Inc. has so much more to offer myself and the world. Who wouldn’t want to be apart of a sisterhood that engages in Educational Development, Economic Development, International Awareness and Involvement, Physical and Mental Health, and Political Awareness and Involvement? The world we live in today needs strong educated black women to leave their mark and uplift the lives of others. The key to success for me is to put what I believe into practice. Think phenomenal things and then work hard to put them into action.
