In essence, Kappa Alpha Psi is a college<br />
fraternity that comprises functioning<br />
undergraduate and alumni chapters on<br />
major campuses and in cities throughout<br />
the country, and is the crystallization of a<br />
dream. It is the beautiful realization of a vision<br />
shared commonly by the late founders<br />
Elder Watson diggs, “The dreamer;” John Mil<strong>to</strong>n Lee; Byron K. Armstrong; Guy Levis Grant;<br />
Ezra d. Alexander; Henry T. Asher; Marcus P. Blakemore; Paul W. Caine; Edward G. Irvin; and<br />
George W. Edmonds. The fraternity’s fundamental purpose is achievement.<br />
<strong>Virginia</strong> <strong>Tech</strong>’s Theta Psi chapter of Kappa Alpha Psi was founded on April 1, 1977, by<br />
five strong and ambitious black men seeking achievement. Seven years later in 1984, the<br />
chapter’s charter was extended <strong>to</strong> include Radford University. The joint chapter still stands<br />
<strong>to</strong> this day, uniting college men of culture, honor, and patriotism in a bond of fraternity.<br />
Membership in Kappa Alpha Psi is a lifelong dedication <strong>to</strong> the ideals and lofty purposes<br />
of Kappa Alpha Psi. Membership is considered only for those aspirants whose personal,<br />
social, and academic qualifications are acceptable <strong>to</strong> both the college and fraternity.
