And, we have been capturing some of the best of your good works for 105 years! valued, seemingly as synonymous with accomplishment, these young people can come to our campuses, centers, complexes and houses and be exposed to a better way and to see actual achieve- ment.
This issue features summaries of the service you have rendered. We also celebrate the Centennial of Kappa Chapter (see page 160) and the Chicago (IL) Alumni Chapter, where the North Central Province (see page 144) had the aforethought to plan years ago to host the Council at the time of Kappa's first alumni chapter's 100 th anniversary (see page 154).

During this 84 th Grand Chapter Meeting we will be celebrating several brothers who have earned our highest awards as well as the chapters whose service records we esteem (see page 32).

W hat a wonderful gift it has been to chronicle the suc- cesses of individual broth- ers, chapters, provinces and Kappa Alpha Psi under the theme Rebirth, Reclaim, Recommit, by Leaving no Brother Behind, which has been the theme of the 33 rd Administration!
