Dear Brothers, Thank you, brothers, for embracing the 11 th Administration of the Southern Province! Upon the news of my appointment as your Province Polemarch, I was greeted with your many expressions of congratulations, and offers of support not only for me, but also the Administration. Again, I extend my gratitude to the Grand Polemarch, Reuben A. Shelton III, Esq. for this appointment, and to my predecessor, the 10 th Southern Province Polemarch, Bertram K. Orum for his steadfast leadership of this great Province. I am most pleased to welcome Brother Jason M. Jones, as our Senior Province Vice Polemarch. Brother Jones brings a wealth of experience to this role, and I look forward to his contributions to the Southern Province. As we embark on this next journey together, I would like to reiterate the theme of the Southern Province: ACHIEVEMENT IS WHAT WE DO . As esteemed men of Kappa Alpha Psi Fraternity, Inc., we embody achievement every day. Achievement is not an afterthought, but rather a forethought. Our achievement is not accidental, but intentional. Therefore, I encourage us to live beyond the way we have always done things. Now is the time to incorporate new ideas, new processes, and new methods to reach our goals. The COVID pandemic has caused the Fraternity to become creative and resourceful with how we conduct our business and meet the needs of our members. The Southern Province is not exempt from this charge; and we will do this together. If you have a desire to serve on a Province committee, please contact me via email or telephone call. We can surely utilize the skills and talents of the brothers in the Southern Province, as we personify ACHIEVEMENT IS WHAT WE DO . We have many activities on the horizon. Our C. Rodger Wilson Leadership Conference will be held November 12, 2021 – November 14, 2021 at the Rosen Centre Hotel in Orlando, Florida. Also, the International Headquarters has provided revised guidance regarding membership intake through the Membership Training Academy. Accordingly, MTA training occurred virtually on-demand to provide us with the requisite information to ensure a successful and safe intake season. Great opportunities await us, brothers. Let us forge ahead with all due diligence, success, and achievement. God bless you all. Yours in the Bond,
Chauncy E. Haynes

At his mother’s suggestion to “find an organization that fits me,” Haynes joined the KappaAlpha Psi Fraternity in 1989 while attending Troy State University. Haynes’ loyalty paid off well this past Sunday afternoon as the Kappa Alpha Psi Fraternity installed him as polemarch of the organization’s Southern Province. A crowd of about 100, which included frat brothers, family members and friends attended the ceremony at Dorothy B. Oven Park. His wife, Relera, held a Bible while Haynes took the oath of office from Thomas Battles Jr., a former polemarch. Haynes, 50, will have the role of governing the second-largest province in the organization. It includes Florida, Alabama, The Bahamas, the Dominican Republic and the U.S. Virgin Islands. “This is a dream come true but everything I do will be for the betterment of this province,” Haynes said afterward. “I’ve worked hard and I think this is a result of that hard work over the years.” Even with that, Haynes said he couldn’t tell someone who asked Haynes living ‘a dream’ as fraternity’s polemarch With help from his wife, Relera (left) and Thomas Battles Jr. last Sunday, Chauncy Haynes takes the oath to become polemarch of Kappa Alpha Psi Fraternity’s Southern Province.

S O U T H E R N P R O V I N C E
celebrating 60 th Anniversary of C. Rodger Wilson Leadership Conference
During a fall weekend each year, each of the twelve Provinces (Regions) of Kappa Alpha Psi Fraternity, serve as hosts of the C. Rodger Wilson Leadership Conference. The C. Rodger Wilson Leadership Conference (CRWLC) as it is presently known, began as the Undergraduate Leadership Conference implemented by Kappa Alpha Psi’s 16 th Grand Polemarch, C. Rodger Wilson.
C. Rodger realized that the Fraternity needed a formalized system by which it could emphasize the theme. It was under this model which the conference was born as a national program in the undergraduate interest. This program would be a school of leadership training and the curriculum would be planned to demonstrate the techniques of leadership and to stimulate the desire to become leaders and to aid them to become better Fraternity men. More specifically, the curriculum would include professional aspects of leadership, scholarship, chapter organization, pledge training, alumni relations, Fraternity songs, history, law and traditions. Although not initially included within the original plans, Guide Right (the Fraternity’s program to serve our youth) eventually became a part of these leadership programs as well. Ini t ial ly, the Undergraduate Leadership Conference was held as a national conference located at one venue on an undergraduate campus, today, the CRWLC is held annually in each Province with the same goal in mind; but now has expanded to educate and train both Alumni and Undergraduate members with professional aspects to effectively execute individual chapter procedures. Following his death, theUndergraduate Leadership Conference was renamed the C. Rodger Wilson Leadership Conference in C. Rodger Wilson’s honor. Kevin Scott, Grand Historian

The first Undergraduate Leadership Conference was held on August 24, 1961, as part of the Golden AnniversaryGrandChapterMeeting in Indianapolis, IN. 56 Undergraduates from 51 different chapters were in attendance. (Photos shows student participants of the first Undergraduate Leadership Conference). In direct relationship to the conference, “C. Rodger”, as he was affectionately known, coined a phrase in 1957, which we still use today as one of our principle themes, “Training for Leadership”.
