Beta Chi Chapter of Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity, Inc., was organized on the campus of Philander Smith College in 1938. Alpha men are first in leadership, scholarship, and citizenship on the campus and in the com- munity. Graduate Alphas have set a precedent that all aspiring Alphas have tried to follow. In the spirit of their founders, the men of Alpha Phi Alpha have exemplified manly deeds, scholarship and love for all mankind. They strive to be first of all servants of all, transcending all. They stead- fastly believe that- all great men are not Alphas, but all Alphas are great men.
