Alpha phi alpha-pi rho chapter Alpha Phi Alpha has a long and distin- guished history of in- volvement, achieve- ment and leadership in civil and human rights efforts. Over the years, the frater- nity has espoused many charitable and service oriented proj- ects. The Go to High School-Go to College program initiated in 1929 counsels youth on LeadershiD in the Millennium the importance of a post-secondary edu- cation and the pro- fessions which show promise fo r ad- vancement. This counseling thrust has been augmented by a vigorous schol- arship program that has provided finan- cial support for both undergraduate and graduate members and non-members of the fraternity.

m Kappa alpha psi fraternity Leadership in the Millennium Kappa Alpha Psi pro- motes a style of intel- lectual and aesthetic evaluation for more than 100,000 college men. Rooted in a genu- ine concern for human development, the Kap- pa Gestalt exhorts its members to stretch themselves in all direc- tions while holding fast to a sustaining principle of achieve- ment. The ten illustrious founders gave birth to a great concept, the idea that if we are go- ing to be brothers, let us be brothers on the best terms that we know. Reliance would be placed upon high Christian ideals and the purpose of honor- able achievement in every field of human endeavor. The Frater- nity would seek to raise the sights of young black youths and stimulate them to accomplish higher than might otherwise be realized or even imagined tasks. n The Kappa Alpha I ' si Fraltrnit) pertorniing durini; Ihe (ireek Showcase during Homecoming weelt. 15
