Kappa Alpha Psi is a fraternity that emphasizes personal achievement. This is evident as our founders accomplished feats many African Americans had never dreamed possible at the time. Of our TEN FOUNDERS there were three doctors, a dentist, a military leader,an educator with a school named in his honor, and several entrepreneurs. To this day, the members still ACHIEVE IN EVERY FIELD OF HUMAN ENDEAVOR. This is evident as 12% of Ebonymagazines "100 Most Influential Black Americans" are members of Kappa Alpha Psi Fraternity Inc.
