INSPIRATION
“ MY PROPENSITY FOR DAYDREAMING REMAINS HIGHLY ACTIVE, ARGUABLY MORE SO THAN USUAL. I CONTINUE TO ENVISION MYSELF IN PLACES AND SITUATIONS I WANT TO BE. ”
Alpha Psi Fraternity, Inc. thrives as it celebrates 115 years of existence with over 250,000 initiated members and approximately 640 undergraduate and alumni chapters in nearly every U.S. state, as well as international chapters in Nigeria, South Africa, the West Indies, the United Kingdom, Germany, Korea, and Japan. Achievement is our standard, and the pursuit of excellence is evident in every aspect of our endeav- ors—across the military, academia, business, gov- ernment, law, healthcare, arts and entertainment, sports, faith communities, and community services. Our Founders established a foundation that has
inspired and motivated generations of young men to make a positive impact on society and the world. Today, our responsibility is to continue to build on this legacy, and if we are curious, we must seek answers to the following questions: “why?”, “how?” and “what if?” Why is it vital for every brother to provide mentorship to our next-generation leaders
in a world of constant and unprecedented change? How do we continue to improve on our platform of excellence and achieve- ment, helping to tackle some of humanity’s most difficult problems? What if the power of our collective dreams makes it possible for us to reimagine a world that is better for genera- tions to come? These questions
purposely challenge us to maintain our focus in trans- lating the power of a dream into impactful outcome. This is the mandate we face; our challenge; our calling. ♦ Rodney C.
