JUNIOR GRAND VICE POLEMARCH'S MESSAGE
Christopher G. Cross, Junior Grand Vice Polemarch, center, flanked by Grand Polemarch Thomas L. Battles, Jr. and Senor Grand Vice Polemarch Reuben A. Shelton III, Esq., receives applause for his work in Kappa Alpha Psi Fraternity.
Undergraduate Leadership Institute and Lead Kappa. Also, undergraduate brothers as we approach the beginning of the school year and you are beginning to plan your chapter’s semester activities, be mindful of the Grand Polemarch’s initiatives in Kappa’s Six-Point Plan. Moreover, include programs related to the undergraduate Grand Chapter Officers’ and Council of Junior Prov- ince Vice Polemarchs’ initiatives such as voter registration, mental health, financial literacy and iKare. I also advise that when we plan social events, that we ensure our market- ing and advertising reflect positive branding practices, and we maximize our efforts to bring in maximum profit with these events. Brothers, it is also important that we prioritize the business of Kappa by ensuring the chapter is registered for CRWLC, the inaugural NFD Undergraduate Summit, and most importantly, the
84 th Grand Chapter Meeting in August 2019 in Philadelphia, PA. Finally, it is also important that as un- dergraduates we abide by the policies in the Membership Training Academy so that we may not contribute to the cur- rent paradox that Kappa Alpha Psi ® finds itself in where the very thing which is meant to sustain and help the fraternity thrive, intake and initiation, is the very thing that poses the deadliest threat to the future of our fraternity. However, I am confident in my faith and hope for undergraduate brothers to utilize MTA to initiate the next generations of leaders and achievers! Yours in the Bond, Christopher G.
