On January 5, 1911, ten Black college men at Indiana University came together with a bold idea and an even bolder belief in themselves. At a time when opportunities were limited and belonging was hard to find, they formed a fraternity that offered support, brotherhood, and motivation to achieve.
That fraternity began as Kappa Alpha Nu and is now known as Kappa Alpha Psi Fraternity, Incorporated. What started as a small group of students quickly became a powerful force for inspiration and excellence, impacting generations of men through chapters around the world.
Working their way through school and often excluded from campus life, these Founders created more than a social outlet. They built a fraternity rooted in high ideals and committed to ACHIEVEMENT.
One hundred fifteen years later, their vision continues to endure, inspire, and elevate generations.
