As the fall semester unfolds and spring semester is slowly approaching, Kent State’s fraternities and sororities open their doors to new students, fostering community and tradition on campus. One organization eager to begin this is Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity, Inc.
Founded in 1906, Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity, Inc. has an extensive history of developing leaders dedicated to impacting their communities, and it was the first intercollegiate Greek-letter fraternity founded for African-American men.
Now, to invite new students who share these ideals, the fraternity has a recruitment process in place that makes sure each new member is prepared to carry on the organization’s rich history.
Greg Simpson, vice president of Alpha Phi Alpha, said being a part of the fraternity has been a rewarding learning experience.
“Joining Alpha is one of the best decisions I’ve made in my life,” Simpson said. “The skills and lessons I learned while joining Alpha are constantly implemented in my day-to-day life and have overall made me a better man. This is something my brothers feel as well and something I think new members would get a sense of, too.”
