Nu Rho Chapter
------ We Put the
'NP' in NUPE
BRIEF HISTORY
The Nu Rho Chapter of
KAY, much like previous chapters, was founded as a representation---a
torch---of the ideas laid down by ten astute founders. The Nu Rho
Chapter of Kappa Alpha Psi Fraternity Inc. was established on February
25, 1989 at Vanderbilt University. The chapter was first established as
the Alpha Theta colony on November 22, 1986 after the “Seven Diamonds of
Genesis” cross-pledged at Tennessee State University. Eric Jones, the
first polemarch of the chapter, along with several other brothers helped
transform the dream of Kappa Alpha Psi into a reality here at Vanderbilt
University.
Their plan was
a simple one. Seeing as how Vanderbilt was becoming a melting pot
of new ideas and cultures, it was essential that they begin bridging
the gap between all cultures and socioeconomic backgrounds.
However, the chapter made a
distinction and targeted men of high ideals and high moral ethics. The
chapter also sought to encourage college men to unite in the bond
of fraternity.
These were the ideas set down by the legendary founders; these are the
ideas the chapter has built upon.
