Alpha Phi Alpha Takes Charter members colonized the national fraternity Alpha Phi Alpha this year after four years of planning. The new members submitted a constitution for approval and began the process leading to the creation of Ferris’ Alpha Phi Alpha fraternity. To acquaint interested men, Zeta Beta Chapter held open and closed smokers and sponsored dances. They also par- ticipated in intramural basketball and began the tradition of the annual Founders’ Day banquet fall term. Dedicated to the cardinal principles of initiative, scholar- ship, cooperation, and brotherhood, the fraternity has six undergraduate chapters and four graduate chapters in Michi- gan. Members uphold the fraternity motto, “first of all, ser- vants of all, we transcend all.” Even in Sunday dress, the men of Alpha Phi Alpha can’t resist threatening fellow students with those snowballs. Actives offer assistance to pledges who may be having trouble with classes. Brothers cooperate and work together in all their activities. Pledges wear the fraternity crest on a lavalier during their pledge period.
