DIRECTOR OF UNDERGRADUATE & UNIVERSITY AFFAIRS' MESSAGE
Greetings Brothers of this Noble Clan
I am truly excited to serve you as your Director of Undergraduate & University Affairs for Kappa Alpha Psi Fraternity, Inc. To have the op- portunity to lead our next generation of leaders into the upcoming academic cal- endar year means so much that words cannot describe. I am excited to bring new innovative ideas to the table to assist our fraternity with next-level thinking. Undergraduate brothers, please be mindful to push the importance of academic excellence; graduation should continue to be your main objective. Continue encouraging your fellow undergraduates to apply for the Under- graduate Leadership Institute (ULI). This week-long training will give you the tools, skill sets and added abilities to make a positive transition from the collegiate level to the work force. Be mindful to put in place the under- graduate initiatives developed by the Undergraduate Grand Board Members in conjunction with our Council of Ju- nior Province Vice Polemarch’s on your college campuses. These goals have been developed to keep you on the path to achievement.
As we continue to work to improve our fraternity, we must be mindful that Kap- pa Alpha Psi ® has been a beacon of light for thousands of young men who paved the way for us. We must be proactive in preserving our organization, which means that we must make sure that the rules and regulations of the fraternity are followed with no exceptions. We must understand the severe consequences that result when illegal activities such as hazing exist anywhere in Kappa. These consequences are more than penalties for individuals who are perpetrators or recipients, but for the fraternity-at-large who must participate in litigation, settlements and potential fines. You must be the doorkeeper that makes sure that Kappa continues through the twenty-first century and beyond. We have a lot of work to do; let’s stay engaged and ready to answer the call to service.
—One Kappa
