Theta Omicron… Achievement Since May 8, 1976… “and on, and on, and on!”

Kappa Alpha Psi Fraternity, Inc.

Kappa Alpha Psi Fraternity, Inc. was founded on the campus of Indiana University on January 5,

1911. Originally chartered and incorporated Kappa Alpha Nu on April 15, 1911, the name was

officially changed to Kappa Alpha Psi on April 15, 1915. The Fraternity is predominately African

American with the fundamental purpose of achievement. Kappa Alpha Psi seeks to train its

membership, particularly undergraduates, for leadership roles in their respective communities

and the attainment of a high degree of excellence in their academic pursuits.

Early in this century, African-American students were actively dissuaded from attending college.

Formidable obstacles were erected to prevent the few who were enrolled from assimilating

into co-curricular campus life. This ostracism characterized Indiana University in 1911, causing

Elder W. Diggs, Byron K. Armstrong, and eight other black students to form Kappa Alpha Psi

which remains the only Greek Letter Organization with its Alpha Chapter (first chapter) on the

University’s campus. The founders sought a formula that would immediately raise the sights of

black collegians stimulating them to reach accomplishments higher than they had imagined.

With achievement as its purpose, Kappa Alpha Psi began uniting college men of culture,

patriotism, and honor in a bond of fraternity. Subsequently, chapters spread in succession to

the University of Illinois, the University of Iowa, and Wilberforce University campuses. By 1919,

the Kappa Alpha Psi experience had generated serious interest among black college degree

holders to form Alumni Chapters.

As graduate chapters multiplied , the Fraternity began to expand its programming, for example,

“Guide Right,” its national social out-reach (mentoring) program was started three years after

the first Alumni Chapters were formed. Today National Guide Right Programs provide

programming, role models, and mentors for at-risk youth and other youth in communities

throughout the country and internationally.

Even though Kappa Alpha Psi Fraternity, Inc. is the only NPHC fraternity to have never extended

an honorary membership to any individual, regardless of rank in society The Fraternity has still

attracted a number of distinguished Americans. In the political realm, these include several

mayors, governors, and congressmen, most notably: Thomas Bradley, W. Wilson Goode, Bernie

Thompson, Michael White, and Johnny Ford. Brothers achieve in all forms of human endeavor

and business and law are no exception. Notable brothers here include: Johnnie L. Cochran, Jr,

Robert Johnson, Reginald F. Lewis, Bert Collins, and Theta Omicrons very own Kwame Jackson.

Civic and Entertainment leaders include: Tavis Smiley, Harry Bellefonte, John Singleton, Cedric

the Entertainer, Montell Jordan, Bishop Eddie L. Long, and Dr. Rev. Ralph Albernathy. In the

athletics arena Arthur Ashe, Wilt Chamberlain, Bill Russell, Anfernee Hardaway, and Allan

Houston are also noteworthy fraternal members.

Theta Omicron… Achievement Since May 8, 1976… “and on, and on, and on!”

The History of Theta Omicron

The Beginning

On May 8, 1976, at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, the Theta Omicron

Chapter of Kappa Alpha Psi Fraternity, Inc. was chartered by eight men seeking an organization striving

towards achievement. These eight men, from diverse backgrounds, united to form a chapter that has

grown and prospered over its first 35 years.

Prior to the chartering of the chapter, twelve men were initiated under the guidance of the Alpha Kappa

Chapter of North Carolina Central University in 1973 to form a colony. Thurston Frazier, Reynauld

Williams, Raymond McAllister, Charles D. Watts, Perry Hodge, Gregory Reed, Winfred Falls, and

Sidney H. Evans were all members of the Spring 1973 pledge class. These twelve men operated as an

independent colony at UNC-Chapel Hill for their first year as a moratorium existed for new fraternities.

Thurston Frazier served as Polemarch during this time of transition. After proving Kappa Alpha Psi’s

dedication to improvement of life, the Theta Omicron Chapter was established in April of 1976 being the

205th chapter in the fraternity. Gordon T. Cureton, Dewey M. Clayton, Barry S. Stanback, Spencer A.

Wynne, and Desoto Wilson, known as the Spirit of ’76, were the first pledges initiated under the Theta

Omicron Chapter in December of 1976.

Over the years, approximately 180 individuals have been initiated into Kappa Alpha Psi through the

Theta Omicron Chapter. Among these brothers were several Morehead Scholars, Pogue Scholars,

Chancellor Scholars, Teaching Fellow Scholars, and other scholarship holders. Since initiation, numerous

brothers have gone on to prominent careers in medicine, law, and business.

Guidance

Several distinguished brothers have served as chapter advisor, including the most illustrious Laurel

Wreath recipient Howard C. Barnhill, Hayben Renwick C.N. “Pap” Parrish, Elbert Avery, Dr. Arhcie Ervin,

and Anthony Walters have also served as chapter advisors.

Theta Omicron Influence

During the early years of the chapter, Theta Omicron was instrumental in the establishment of the Iota

Xi Chapter at Duke University, Mu Iota Chapter at the University of North Carolina at Greensboro, and

the Kappa Xi Chapter at North Carolina State University in 1980.

Awards and Recognition

Through the years, the Theta Omicron Chapter has been very active in the Middle Eastern Province. The

Chapter has produced seven Junior Vice Polemarchs, three provincial Strategus, and one Lt. Strategus,

and seven executive board members. The Theta Omicron Chapter has also produced eight

Undergraduate Kappa Man of the Year awards, five of which were won consecutively from 1993-1997;

past Polemarch Daryl Porter II is the most recent recipient of the award in 2009. In 1987, 1992, 1995,

1996, 1998, 2000, 2004, and 2009, the Theta Omicron Chapter was named Undergraduate Chapter of

the Year in the Province.

In 1990 the chapter was named a “Super Builder” for the new International Headquarters of Kappa

Alpha Psi Fraternity, Inc. At the 20th Grand Conclave in Orlando, Florida, Brothers Kenneth Pugh and

Kevin Davis were awarded the Guy Levis Grant Award and the Bryon Kenneth Armstrong Award

respectively. This marked the first time in the history of the fraternity that two members of the same

chapter received the two highest undergraduate awards in the same year.

Dean Major Payne,

We have successfully made it through another year of all-

nighters and everlasting hw. I now realize how much I’m going

to miss you next year. It has been great knowing you these past

four years! Though I liked your hair, I’m proud of how much

you’ve grown since we entered UNC. Who would’ve thought you

would grow from ß this guy freshman year to this man à soon

to be working for Wall Street? Congrats on Kappa, your third

ball, and everything to come from here!

-Lateefah

Stefan,

It’s been an amazing journey! I am very proud of the man

you’ve become. Best of luck in all of your future endeavors.

Congrats on your third Kocktails and Kufflinks Ball!!! -

Now that are moving out of college into a

new phase of life, you have the potential to leave as big a mark on the world as wish.

KONGRATULATIONS ON YOUR 3RD

AND FINAL BALL MY DEAR FRIEND!

Stefan! Ohhhh Stefan Smh!

My love for you has grown out of our many conversations and argument; sometimes I

think you say things just to make me bicker with you. However, growing to see the per-

son you are makes me appreciate you more and more. You are very special lol. I know

I can count on you and I know you are always down for your “homies”—whether that

be late trips to cookout or stopping by “The Burg” on your way back to the Hill. I be-

lieve you are going to make your mark in whatever you end up pursuing. Success will

not be a problem for you. I just ask that you remember to remain a great person, stay

true to your friends, and get some SLEEP as you take your steps toward

accomplishing it.

—”Rashy”

days! That says a LOT. I’m positive we will remain cool far past

Cliffords, so you are stuck being my friend! I’ve had the opportunity

to watch you grow over these four years and one thing is undenia-

ble, you love KAPsi. More importantly, you love Theta Omicron! It

makes me smile to see you live out your dream and reach such

heights of success in both Kappa and in your personal life! KOngrats

Congrats on Your 2nd

Kappa Ball Darius!!!

You’re an Awesome Young

Man with a lot of Heart!

Continue to Develop

Yourself and Your Talents!

Best,

Demi Brown

Brother Dearest, I am so proud of the young man that you have

grown to be. It seems like only yesterday you

were following me around all day, every day.

Now I can barely even hug you without

standing on my tip-toes! You’ve always been a

very bright and humble soul: hold fast to those

qualities and all the principles that you know

we were raised by. Keep striving to be the best

even when you think you’ve accomplished all

you can. Remember, there is always something

you can improve upon. I know that you will go

on to fulfill your dreams and God’s will. I can’t

wait to come up to UNC in 2012 and see you

tossing that Carolina Blue cap in the air! I love

you, Eddie loves you, and Mom loves you!

Love, Shalundra “Big Sis”

Jeremiah 29:11 says "For I know the plans I have for you," declares

the LORD, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future." Always remember that God's plan for you is to

prosper you so come what may everything will be alright. Embrace the obstacles and the detours in life, they only build character. I am

beyond proud of the man you are becoming and I pray and know that God will continue to bless you. It has been a blessing to call you a

friend and although the "Bronze Bruhs" title may be retired the spirit will live on lol. Congratulations Darius on another Kappa Ball! Keep

achieving...as I am sure you will!

Love of my life! Congratulations on your

second Kappa Ball! I can’t believe our time together is coming to a

close! Nevertheless, I am so impressed by the

outstanding young man you have become. Make me

proud!

Much love, dearest

To my favorite Nupe, It has been a WILD ride since we met 8 long years ago!

Denzel

What an honor and blessing it has

been to watch you grow into a strong

young man. It feels like only yesterday,

your mom and I were following the

school buses on the first day of school

for you and Josh. Now we are shouting

and praising God because you both are

in college. Always remember you were

created for success and nothing can

ever stop you. Philippians 1:6 says

“being confident of this, that he who

began a good work in you will carry it

on to completion until the day of Christ

Jesus”. I Love you and I’m very proud

of all you have become.

Congratulation on becoming a member

of the Theta Omicron Chapter of

Kappa Alpha Psi Fraternity!

Always Your Support System,

Debra Hogg

&

Best Wished

On your first Kappa Ball

As you know Phive it’s been a long time Koming, many are Kalled but few are chosen.

It takes a real man to be a five in T.O. You should feel proud; you’re part of an elite and

select group and one of the rarest diamonds. Forget what you hear, the five is the realest

number on line. I have no doubt you will represent for all of us, hold it down and keep

that swag that only us fives can exude. The torch has been passed now it’s up to you to

light the path for those to follow. 5 Klub….you got it bruh!!!!

I COMPLETELY (hint, hint*) understand why they call you the Kon Artist now since you were able to “persuade” me to buy this ball ad. Anyways, I guess it gives me the opportunity to say that I am proud of you and the great Kappa man you have become. Enjoy your first Kappa Ball and I wish you the best in all your endeavors. Showing DMV love,

B .Hack P.S.- MoCo is better!

Dave and Denzel 1st and foremost, congrats with all your successes thus far. Continue to lead and grow. Keep achieving and enjoy this special 35 Anniversary! -DP
