Our duty is clear: It is to operate at the highest level of integrity and fidelity and to support a fraternity that champions achievement and enhances causes for the public good.
As with any new administration, I urge you to join forces with us as we commence an exciting journey in the history of our great province. As we prepare for the ensuing fraternal year, let each of us be mindful of the work that must be done. Each of us must accept the challenge of trying valiantly and of daring greatly so that the charge given to us by our revered founders will be executed to their everlasting glory and to the glory of all who love our Noble Clan and who believe in the intrinsic worth of Phi Nu Pi.
Kappa Alpha Psi®, a college Fraternity, was born in an environment saturated in racism. On January 5, 1911, the Fraternity became known as Kappa Alpha Nu, possibly as a tribute to the Black students of 1903 (the Alpha Kappa Nu Greek Society) who preceded them at Indiana University. The name was officially changed to Kappa Alpha Psi on a resolution adopted at the Grand Chapter Meeting in December 1914. This change became effective April 15, 1915.
Kappa League is a subset of the Guide Right, our National Service Initiative. Under the chairmanship of Mel Davis, the Los Angeles Alumni Chapter’s Social Action Program took the form of training activity for young men of the Alain Leroy Locke High School. Called the Kappa Instructional Leadership League, it was designed to help young men grow, receive, and develop their leadership talents in every phase of human endeavor. It provided both challenging and rewarding experiences, which richly enhanced their lives. Membership was open to male students from the tenth through the twelfth grades. The fraternity sought to help these young men to achieve worthy goals for themselves and make constructive contributions to their community when leadership roles become the responsibility.
