THE CONVENTION CALL

x A J p h a Conventions are historically exciting occasions. And they should be. The 87th Anniversary Convention in New Orleans, LA, July 29-August 4, will be no less exciting. Yet, it will be different, for it is the beginning of the Alpha Renaissanceâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;a rekindling of the leadership and public service responsibilities of Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity to the world it serves. Come prepared for intellectual stimulation, service, and a lot of fun. I want the Brotherhood to join me in the actual construction of a house associated with the Habitat Housing Project. We'll spend a day, or a portion thereof, helping some local citizen(s) realize the American dream of owning a home. It would be difficult to get through a convention without the traditional Alpha Step Show, but an added feature this year is the College Brothers Scholarship Bowl. Few careers are not manifested in the ranks of Alpha men, and we intend to showcase and share these professional resources with college Brothers through mentoring sessions. We are inviting presenters from the highest levels of government to develop an emphasis on public policy and Black America. The international arena will not be ignored as we welcome Ambassadors from other nations to join us for an International Forum concluding with an Interna-

tional Festival of food and entertainment. The business of Alpha will be conducted more efficiently. Saturday, July 31, 1993 will be Alpha's legislative day where all significant fraternal issues will be debated and voted on. Be there. Don't miss New Orleans. And bring your family. Family and Alpha Renaissance are synonymous. For ladies we are planning early morning gatherings for Alpha aerobics, continental breakfast educational forums each day focusing on topics such as Women's health issues; a chef shall demonstrate New Orleans, Southern and Cajun Cooking; lessons in computer literacy and literature by and about Black women shall interest all. The children too have a special agenda of fun and educational activities. Be a participant in the Alpha Renaissance.

Editor's Note: The following address was delivered by Brother Milton C. Davis on the occasion of his inauguration as 29th General President of Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity, Incorporated. The Inaugural Luncheon/Convocation u;,s he'd at the Birmingham Civic (enter Hotel. January 23, 1993.

To the distinguished Past General Presidents of Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity—Brother Walter Washington, Brother James R. Williams, Brother Ozell Sutton, Brother Charles Teamer, and Brother Henry Ponder. To the General Officers seated at the head table, Brothers of Alpha, ladies and gentlemen. We meet in Birmingham for many reasons: —Birmingham is of course in Alabama, the State I cherish and call home. —It is the home city of one of Alpha's outstanding chapters, Omicron Lambda. —It is Alabama's largest city and corporate capital of the State. —Birmingham holds a legacy and history of our mighty struggle for human rights. —Birmingham is governed by one of our Fraternity's finest sons, Brother Richard Arrington, whose quiet and dignified hand has radically changed the image of this city and continues to guide it to prosperity. Like those giant champions of human rights 30 years ago, Brother Arrington has manifested the character, leadership and courage to confront injustice, prevail in doing so, and emerge vindicated by many of the same forces which sought his downfall. Brother Arrington: I summoned the Brothers of Alpha here to salute you and to witness in person your fine example. —Birmingham is also part of the congressional district which placed the first AfricanAmerican from Alabama in the United States Congress since Reconstruction. Our Brother Earl Milliard is that congressman. You have our support as you take on this great challenge, Brother Hilliard. I want to thank the Brothers of Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity worldwide for elevating me to this place of high honor. I am humbled by this awesome challenge and responsibility, and I look forward to working with you as we, together, achieve new goals and expand our Fraternity's legacy and future. This continues to be a momentous and significant week in the life of this nation and the Black community. We have already observed poignantly the birthday of Brother Martin Luther King, Jr.; we have paused to witness a revival of hope and renewal in the inauguration of a new president of the United States; and now a great and noble body of Alpha men (one thousand of us from 32 states and three international communities and representing scores of professions) convene in Birmingham to deliberate and chart a course for continuing leadership and uplift for the Black community—both in this country and abroad.

It is a serious commitment when the men of Alpha meet. Our history is replete with examples of contributions to the world order. This is the Fraternity of W.E.B. DuBois, a founder of the NAACP. Alpha is the Fraternity of Eugene Kinckle Jones, a Jewel Founder, who also helped found the National Urban League. This is the Fraternity of Frederick D. Patterson, founder of the United Negro College Fund, of the widely acclaimed jurist Thurgood Marshall, of former U.S. Senator Edward Brooke, Congressman Adam Clayton Powell, Martin Luther King, Jr., Andrew Young, Maynard Jackson, Richard Arrington, Paul Robeson, John H. Johnson, Louis Sullivan, William Gray, Earl Hilliard, Ron Dellums, Charles Rangel, Whitney Young, Jesse Owens, Arthur D. Shores, and a seemingly endless list of leaders who have moved our nation and communities forward. It is no idle boast, but simple historical fact that every major event in the progress of the AfricanAmerican community in this nation since 1906 has significantly involved the men of Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity, Incorporated. We can take great pride in, and gain inspiration from, the role Alpha has played in changing the course of this nation. But Brothers, the past should only serve us today as a preface and prologue to the present and the future. Our time and energies are not well spent looking backwards and reminiscing about bygone days, people and events. Although we must honor and profit from our history, our focus must be fixed on looking and moving forward. Our world is increasingly interdependent. There is no Berlin Wall, and the Soviet Union is no longer a military threat to the world. Events in Birmingham, AL and Atlanta, GA, impact circumstances in South Africa where the vicious apartheid clings to fading strings of life. Racism is still a chronic malady of our society, as it has always been. But like our forebearers, the men of Alpha know that racism is merely a nuisance and can only impede, but will never stop progress. From its beginnings in 1906, Alpha's standard has been the world's standardâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;that is a bench mark of excellence . . . no crutches, no excuses, but scholarship and achievement. Leadership in social purpose and social action remain at the center of our reasons for being. The objectives of our Fraternity are as viable today as when we were founded almost 90 years ago. Those objectives are: "To stimulate the ambition of its (our) members; to prepare them for the greatest usefulness in the causes of humanity, freedom, and dignity of the individual; to encourage the highest and noblest form of manhood; and to aid downtrodden humanity in its efforts to achieve higher social, economic and intellectual status.'''' Our Brother Martin Luther King, Jr. stated it well when he said: "An individual has not started living until he can rise above the narrow confines of his individualistic concerns to the broader concerns of all humanity.'''' Brother King also tells us that: "Every man must decide whether he will walk in the light of creative altruism or the darkness of destructive selfishness. This is the judgment. Life's most persistent and urgent question is, 'what are you doing for others?'" The men of Alpha must respond to this question daily, and they must do so in creative ways, not only in the communities in which they live, but across the nation and around the world. We respond by â&#x20AC;&#x201D; being involved in strengthening the family which extends throughout the communities in which we live and work.

— being more politically involved at all levels. — being promoters of and partners in economic and flnancial development of the African-American community. If we are to control our destiny, we must control our money. — We respond to Dr. King's question by embracing our Fraternity's mandate for scholarship and lifelong learning. There need not be a consensus in our thinking, but we must be united in our actions. We must work together—we must cooperate focusing on common goals—on building community. You have passed the mantle of leadership to me. I humbly accept it. I am reminded of a favorite quote of both Dr. Booker T. Washington and Theodore Roosevelt. They both agreed: u

lt is not the critic who counts, it is not the man who points out where the strong man stumbled or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. Credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena who's face is marred by sweat and dust and blood—who strives valiantly, who errs and comes short again and again—for it is he who knows the great enthusiasm, the great devotions, and spends himself in a worthy cause. Who in the end knows the triumph of high achievement, and who if he fails at least fails while daring greatly so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who know neither victory nor defeat." I summon the Brothers of Alpha to the Arena. I call us to service. I call us to serv ice. I call us to service.

The hour has come to pass the torch lighted four score and six years ago December last near Lake Cayuga's waters by seven of the race the ancient Greeks called Aethiopes-burnt faced men- inheritors of the legacy of the immutable Sphinx guardian through the ages of the land of their ancestors The torch whose flames light the world dispelling ignorance inspiring all within its glow to knowledge, achievement and service to all mankind purging their minds of evil their hearts of fear as they uplift the downtrodden embracing all men in transcendent brotherhood Let him chosen first among equals by wearers of the black and gold the dove on his shoulder the fasces in one hand hold aloft the torch in the other and reach for the stars.

A 30-piece instrumental ensemble from Tuskegee University and the Stillman College musicians added a distinctiveness to the occasion. The spirited and culminating worship service with the Rev.

Leadership Seminars—Communications, Social Outreach, Business and Economic Development, Membership, Finance, and Staff and Volunteers— which provided an opportunity for interaction. On-site participation in district, regional and national meetings can be expensive; but it need not be. Delegates participating in the communications seminar talked about the use of teleconferencing as a means of interacting. Members would be spared the cost of lodging and meals through participation in an organized tele-conference as opposed to traveling to the various convention sites. Brother Vic Carter, news anchor for WSB-TV, Atlanta, chaired the communication seminar, which he said also covered the value of chapters being more attuned to the needs of local media in publicizing Fraternity activities, developing basic news releases, and handling crisis with media involvement. Carter said the seminar also covered the possibility of Brothers being able to dial into a computer system at The first family: Dr. Myrtle Davis with Warren & Christopher Davis

the National Headquarters and call up answers rather than relying on the increasingly outmoded mail system. "If we are going to have a viable organization, it is imperative that we have an active membership," said Brother Adrian L. Wallace, Southwestern Vice President. Wallace notes that the Fraternity may have initiated as many as five to ten times more members than are currently active. Wallace is not concerned only about numbers. Rather, he says, the goal is to insure quality along with the numbers. Nonetheless, he maintains, the Fraternity's membership base impacts directly on the financial base required to administer quality programs. The Fraternity's Membership and Marketing Division is developing a strategy for increasing membership that could call for district and regional membership "performance standards" and provide incentives for reaching those standards. The marketing plan, now only in the discussion stage, was aired during the Leadership Seminar on Membership. Brother Roger B. Mclean said he was "very pleased" with reaction to partici-

pation in the Leadership Seminar on Finance which reviewed the Fraternity's overall system of budgeting and accounting. Brother Mclean also chairs the Fraternity's Budget and Finance Committee. He said General President Davis wants the budget to reflect more emphasis on scholarships and charitable causes. "He (President Davis) wants the world to know that we are here to serve the needs of mankind," Mclean said. Brother Mclean is Big Brothers/Big Sisters of America honor Brother Vice Chancellor for Business and Finance Davis at Elizabeth City State University, NC. Although the National Board has approved the 1993 budget, Brother Mclean said he and his committee are still looking at ways to "streamline the budget on the expense side and enhance the budget on the revenue side." Grand and chapter tax, conventions, sale of history books and pins, and initiation fees are currently the principal sources of revenue, Mclean said. Improved communication between volunteers, chapters, and the central office staff seemed to have been the principal concerns of participants in the Leadership Seminar chaired by Brother Iva Williams. Participants in this seminar suggested the appointment of more "area coordinators." for instance, to help area directors stay in contact with chapters that are too scattered for directors to handle without assistance. Brothers cited the need for more volunteer training, particularly as the training relates to the Fraternity's Intake Process. Brother Williams is Community Affairs Coordinator for the Southern Company Services in Birmingham. Alpha should establish strong relationships with Fortune 500 companies, community organizations and educational foundations, and federal, state and local governments, the moderator of the Business and Economic Development workshop said. Lawrence Drake, a KFC vice president, chaired this session. Drake said the partnerships with Fortune 500 companies and others are necessary to assist the Fraternity in raising resources to support its programs. Drake said participants believe that the Fraternity's Education Foundation should lead the effort in forging partnerships between the Fraternity, businesses and governmentâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;identifying resources to support the Fraternity's scholarship and mentoring programs. "The organization also has a responsibility to serve as an educational forum for individual Brothers," Drake explained. This educational responsibility includes exposing Brothers to all the components and ramifications of business ventures. "We tend to think that if we have a good product, we can open a business." Drake noted in support of the need for education about economic development projects. "But if we don't understand cash flow, income statements, how to raise venture capital, and the like," Drake said the business venture won't make the long haul. The business starts out in jeopardy, he added. "Having a good product is not in itself enough" to start a business, Drake insisted. Drake maintains that Alpha Phi Alpha should "be at the forefront of political, social and economic change in our country. Given the strength and heritage of our organization, we should be able to accomplish that," he said.

COMMENTARY

Where are Our Diplomats? --^Âť ^m

By Brother Ambassador Horace G. Dawson, Jr.

he death recently of Brother Thurgood Marshall reminds us, among so many other things, of the thinness of our ranks. This refers not only to Brother Marshall's position as Associate Justice of the Supreme Court. There always will be few of those.

I am thinking more about the scarcity in the ranks from which Marshall was drawn. Despite considerable progress in education, socio-economic status, and politics over the past twenty years, Black Americans continue to be under-represented in practically every vital sphere of American life. We lack entrepreneurs in a business age; computer scientists during man's greatest technological explosion; doctors when our country's health system is in crisis; lawyers, physicists, teachers, environmentalists, philosophers, and publishers. The list is endless. And what is more, ambition among our youth appears to be on the decline. We know all too well the statistics about the number of Black males entangled in the criminal justice system compared to the number in college. Unfortunately, there is more truth in this than fiction or hyperbole. No longer can one assert always with certainty, "You just guarantee me that you're serious about hiring, and I'll bring you many qualified African-Americans...who are interested." The Sphinx/Spring 1993

Prior to my retirement nearly four years ago, I spent more than a quarter of a century in the diplomatic service of the United States. Throughout that period, I and most of the other Blacks within the ranks of the Department of State, the United States Information Agency, the Agency for International Development, and the Peace Corps spent countless hours trying to recruit young African Americans. We had some successes, but not many. In terms of numbers, the Foreign Service of the United States is only marginally more ethnically diverse today than it was thirty years ago. Some claim it is becoming increasingly less so, and this is unfortunate. What the Foreign Service does affects the lives of all Americans, relentlessly, so as we enter inevitably into an age of increasing interdependence. Diplomats provide our government, and our people, with an understanding of other peoples economies and cultures. They supply the information and insights on which policies are based; and in the end, they implement the policies of our government in other countries. Page 9

What we eat, what we wear, what we can afford, and most of all, whether we are at peace or war, often depend critically on the performance of this small band of highly trained men and women. The absence or scarcity of African-Americans means a significant denial of a policy perspective which our government sorely needs. Was there, for example, an African-American presence when the policy on Haiti was developed by the Bush administration? Should the U.S. have gone into Somalia sooner? Should we be in Bosnia at all? These are but a few of the kinds of questions with which our Foreign Service wrestles on a daily basis. The officers, some of the best trained professionals in the country, are based in countries around the world for short periods of time, interspersed with annual and home leave, and more often than not, living in enviable conditions of luxury and day to day excitement. No, the Service is not all glamour. There is always a Somalia, an Iraq, a distant Burma, and someone has to go there. But by and large, those doing diplomatic business belong to an elite corps fabled for an often fascinating and exotic life style. There are, to be sure, striped pants, top hats, and evening gowns to be worn on special occasions, but the daily office dress is shirt and tie, skirts and blouses. Diplomats travel and live abroad with their families, children included, and they are taught other languages, acquire skills which enable them to cope with cultural diversity, and they often deal at the highest levels of power in foreign lands. Anyone doubting this has only to reflect on the role of Ambassador Oakley in Somalia today or, if one is old enough, Ambassador Ulric Haynes, the AfricanAmerican who assisted with the release of American hostages during the Iranian crisis of 1979-80. Of course, not every assignment affords such a decisive presence or historic role. Any one of them may do so,

however, and one must be on board, one must be a part of the system to be at the right place at the proper time. The problem is - too few African-Americans are so positioned. Fewer than eight percent, closer to five percent, of the U.S. diplomatic corps consists of AfricanAmericans. It is not as though the field is entirely new. The first Black to enter the diplomatic service of the United States, Alexander Leidesdorff, did so in the California territory belonging to Mexico in 1845. Appointed Vice Consul at Yerba Buena (San Francisco) by U.S. Consul Thomas O. Larkin, Leidesdorff recorded and reported on the Bear Flag Incident, one of the defining moments in U.S. history, and critical in California's progress toward statehood. In 1869, Ebenezer Don Carlos Bassett, a native of Philadelphia, was appointed U.S. Minister to Haiti by President Grant. This assignment marked the beginning of a long line of patronage appointments of African-Americans by Republican presidents. Most assignments were to the Consular Corps - Foreign Service, but not quite diplomatic - and almost all were to African and/or Caribbean countries. Although even this route was blocked in the early part of this century when the "professional service" replaced the political system, a smattering of Blacks began to enter the U.S. Foreign Service as professionals. Clifton R. Wharton became in 1924 the first to pass the Foreign Service Written Examination. When he reported for duty from his home in Boston, the State Department, suddenly realizing it had no accommodations for the young African-American in thoroughly segregated Washington, shipped him off to an assignment in Liberia virtually without training or orientation. Wharton, who died in his nineties only a few years ago, lived to see numerous changes. His assignments in mid-career to such countries as France, Portugal,

'Diplomats provide our government, and our people with an understanding of other peoples economics and cultures. They supply the information and insights on which policies are based; and in the end, they implement the policies of our government in other countries.

and Romania helped to break the "Black triangle" which circumscribed the careers of Black officers for more than a quarter of a century. In 1964, after nearly 40 years of service, Clifton Wharton was appointed Ambassador to Norway by President Kennedy. Although Wharton was the first Black career diplomat to achieve this rank, Edward R. Dudley of New York, a political appointee, has the distinction of being the first Black Ambassador in U.S. history. President Truman designated him to head the U.S. mission in Liberia as Ambassador Extraordinary and Plenipotentiary in 1949. Returning to the practice of law in New York following the diplomatic assignment, Dudley is now a retired judge with homes in New York and Florida. All together there have been 58 Black American ambassadors in U.S. history. The Foreign Service achieved its greatest expansion in Black officers during the Kennedy years. Growth continued under Presidents Johnson, Nixon, and Carter, but tapered off under Reagan and Bush. African-Americans, both men and women, have served in every area of the world and in all branches of the Foreign Service - State Department, Agency for International Development, United States Information Agency, and the Peace Corps. Some have received assignments also in the Departments of Agriculture and Commerce. This despite a limited number of Blacks in all of the agencies, a situation persisting notwithstanding numerous efforts to recruit young African-Americans for careers in the diplomatic service. Reasons are numerous. Foreign Affairs holds limited interest among African-Americans. Consequently, the Foreign Service is little known in the Black community; and among those who are somewhat familiar, misconceptions abound. For example, many consider diplomatic service the same as military service, something one is not able to leave voluntarily once you "sign on". This is completely false. Blacks also continue to see the Service as hostile to African-Americans. They see few role models, first, because the numbers in the Service are few, and secondly, because Blacks serving as diplomats are normally overseas and, therefore, out-of-sight to the Black community. And finally, perception persists that no efforts are made to attract minority group members to enter foreign diplomatic service.

It would be misleading not to admit the reality of much of this. As in many other aspects of American life, but perhaps particularly so in the diplomatic service, there has been no great emphasis historically on the recruitment of Blacks. Many of those in it have complained, and continue to complain, over unfair treatment, limitations on advancement, and the scarcity of their numbers at top levels, particularly at the ambassadorial level. None of this, however, is a good enough argument against Black participation. Indeed, some would argue, myself among them, that this is all the more reason for Black Americans to break down these barriers and to establish what is after all a much needed presence. Whether or not our government or decision makers within it recognize it to be true, those who represent the United States abroad should reflect the diversity which exists in American society generally. Any other representation, which has characterized the situation historically, is by definition misleading. We recognize this truth in education, in the arts, in sports, in business, in the military, in other sectors of American life. It should be no less so in the all important area of foreign affairs. As Brother Marshall saw that this was so in law and the judiciary, many other Alpha men have illustrated the principle by pioneering service in the small cadre of Black Americans serving over the years as diplomats. The problem is, there have been too few. I would like to use this opportunity to encourage Alpha men, particularly our brothers in colleges and universities, but also some of our younger men beginning or changing careers, to give some thought to diplomatic service. There are numerous rewards. The pay is reasonable. There is ample opportunity for professional advancement. And above all, our country - whether or not it recognizes it - needs the skills and sensitivities we can bring to bear in this important aspect of American life. Alpha men, here and elsewhere, should be in the forefront.

FROM C.P.A. TO STORYTELLER Brother Thomas S. Watson, Jr. says he has found a new calling in life, storytelling. Brother Watson a life member of Pi Chapter, Cleveland, recently retired from active management of Watson Rice and Company (WRC) which he helped start. For twenty (20) years, he served as Chairman and Managing Partner/Chief Executive of the nationally recognized accounting and consulting firm. Brother Watson says, being a storyteller has allowed him to be a "conduit of wisdom" and enabled others to get a "broader understanding of people." He describes this change in careers as an extension of himself. In his world travels he has delivered numerous motivational speeches. His storytelling, as he explains, allows people to understand themselves through self empowerment.

Brother Theodore G. Nixon, Executive Director of the AfriMale Institute (AMI), is a firm believer in the African proverb, "it takes a whole village to raise a child." AMI is a program to aid the social, economic, and educational development of AfricanAmerican males. AMI was founded in December of 1991 by Kappa Iota Lambda Chapter of Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity, Inc.,and Kappa Iota of Burlington County, New Jersey. The Institute has recruited over 50 high school males mainly of African-American descent from south Jersey counties, mainly Burlington, Camden,

Gloucester, and Mercer counties. The young men are taught life and survival skills. The curriculum emphasizes leadership, self-motivation, self-esteem, social graces, personal health and safety, and occupational preparation. The interesting fact is that no tuition or enrollment costs are incurred by participants. The students are provided lunch and recreational activities. Contributions to support the program are made both in effort by parents, friends, and Brothers of Kappa Iota Lambda. Brother Nixon's selection to head the institute was not by chance. He graduated from Shaw University with a Bachelor of Science degree and from North Carolina Central University with a Master of Science degree. He formerly was a principal in Johnston County, North Carolina. Currently, Brother Nixon is a Division Director for the U.S. Office of Civil Rights. Brother Nixon was initiated into Alpha Phi Alpha in 1952 at Beta Rho Chapter at Shaw University. He has served as president and vice president, chairman of the Education Committee and was Alpha Man of the Year by Kappa Iota Lambda.

In addition to the lively AfriMale Institute, the Brothers of Kappa Iota Lambda invited students from an inner city school, Camden High, to spend a day with them at their respective work places. It was an insightful experience. And the six neophyte Brothers are credited with making a significant contribution to the chapter's public service program. They developed two church musicals, one of them featuring Karen White, daughter of the famed Fats Domino. The chapter's New Year's Eve Gala is also reported as a "not to be forgotten" event. WASHINGTON, D.C. Youth and service topped the program agenda for the Brothers of Omicron Lambda Alpha. A BikeA-Thon and the annual Martin Luther King, Jr. Black and Gold Ball both helped raise funds for the chapter's scholarships given annually to deserving youth. The chapter had youth and the community in mind when it sponsored a series of educational semi-

nars: "Male/Female Relationships," "Legal Issues," and "AIDS in the Black Community." During the seminar on "Legal Issues," presenters focused on the present and future position of minorities in the U.S. Presenters sought to air some of the factors that unfortunately seem to divide Black males and females, a division, the planners said, that contributes to the breakdown of the Black family. Brothers also regularly participated in the preparation of breakfast and food distribution for the needy sponsored locally by the Mt. Calvary Episcopal Church and the Sojourner's Food Bank.

TOWSON STATE UNIVERSITY When organizations and individuals from across the city lined up for Baltimore's Walk for Africa, Mu Rho was among the participants. It was the second consecutive year the chapter has been in the lineup. The campus Walk for Diabetes also got support from Mu Rho. Otherwise, Mu Rho's outreach and scholarship support activities included: the annual Minority Book Scholarship; a contribution to Project Lean on Us, a nonprofit organization with a special interest in assisting homeless children; and the chapter hosted a deserving family at a Thanksgiving dinner. In addition to their campus forum on "Confronting Campus Conflicts," Mu Rho also teamed with Sigma Pi, a predominately white fraternity, in sponsoring a seminar with a focus on racial harmony; and then they teamed with the campus chapter of Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority in a seminar on "How to Be Sexy, Safe and Satisfied."

is now named in honor of Brother Jewel Vertner W. Tandy. Brother Jewel Tandy's contributions to the field of architecture will also be lauded during a special recognition program being planned by Alpha chapter. Cornell—the campus and larger community—also benefited from a lecture series offered by Alpha chapter. Community awareness was heightened through public presentations on "Private Discrimination," "Ninety Minutes with Malcolm X," "Absence of Men of Color in Academia," and "Living with AIDS." Despite the range of the community service programs it administers, Alpha chapter's major project is the Dr. Alex Galvin College Tour which takes high school students from the Ithaca area to campuses of the nation's historically Black colleges and universities. SUNY/BROCKPORT They were not concerned about who the citizens voted for, but they were concerned that the citizens voted. So prior to the 1992 Presidential Elections, Rho Alpha launched a voter registration drive that is reported to have netted more than 300 new voters. "You must be registered to make a difference," they emphasized during the campaign. Traditional fundraisers, Sickle Cell and Diabetes among them, were on Rho Alpha's calendar for the reporting year; and the Brothers played a major role in SUNY's Big Brother program which provided tutoring for African-American males in English and mathematics. Active as they were with community and youth activities, the Brothers did not allow fraternal activities to take precedence over their primary reason for being at SUNY—excellence in academic pursuits. The chapter's 3.25 overall grade point average was the highest among other fraternities.

ROCHESTER INSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGY The first African-American Greek-letter fraternity recognized on the Rochester Institute of Technology campus of the University of Rochester, Mu Sigma has taken a high profile position of leadership. "Reel Black" was a month-long tribute to films written, directed, and starring African-Americans; "Weekly Wednesday Night Study Sessions" have evidenced steady growth; and a weekly newsletter, "Glory of a Black Race," highlights famous African-American people, places, and events. Monthly seminars, "Building the Gap," are helping develop improved relations within the campus community, and a career workshop focused on resume writing, interviewing techniques, and Workforce 2000. Scholarship? "Project Quantexcellence" recognizes high academic achievement among Rochester area seniors, the funds for which were raised from a range of activities during the chapter's annual "Alpha Weekend" project. SUNY/OSWEGO A number of 10 to 16 year olds in Oswego, NY, are expected to benefit from the "Road to Better Things" sponsored by Sigma Omicron chapter. The fun-filled weekend of activities held on SUNY/Oswego campus was covered extensively by the local newspaper. It was reported in the paper the "Road to Better Things" weekend was the first mentor program offered to the youth of Oswego. The President of SUNY/Oswego was among the weekend speakers. A food drive for children of migrant workers in Oswego, a voter registration drive, a Project Alpha seminar, an Alpha ski trip, a Black and Gold Buffet, and an Adopt-AGrandparent program rounded out the Sigma Omicron program year.

The mentor program was completed in conjunction with the Boys Club of Syracuse, and the voter registration drive was a joint effort with New York Public Interest Research Group. PHILADELPHIA, PENNSYLVANIA It was an ambitious request, but Brothers of Rho Chapter in Philadelphia answered the call to invest $100 in the "$100 Club." Twentyeight (28) Brothers answered the challenge, enabling the chapter to fulfill its mission of providing scholarships. This fundraising activity was just one of many ways the chapter has chosen to reach out to educate youth. On a weekly basis Brothers can be found lending tutorial assistance at schools and churches in the Greater Philadelphia area. Several Brothers were also involved in a project designed to prepare young adults to complete the GED examination. The chapter's second annual College Brothers Symposium was an opportunity for college Brothers to receive assistance on landing that first job. Topics such as resume tips and interviewing techniques were exchanged during networking sessions. Brothers from Rho chapter, along with Brothers from alumni chapters in Philadelphia, won honors in the Alumni Greek Step Show, and the chapter's Thanksgiving Eve Harvest Moon Ball won rave reviews. ARLINGTON, VIRGINIA When the Brothers of Theta Rho Lambda gathered for their annual Black and Gold Banquet and Ball, special honorees were recipients of 50 and 25 year Membership Certificates and of the Fraternity's Community Service Award. Two Brothers received 50-year Membership Certificates, H. Gray The Sphinx/Spring 1993

Gillem, Sr. and Charles Covington, and 25-year Certificates went to 18 members of Theta Rho Lambda. Mr. Jack Gravely, NAACP National Director for Special Projects, received the Fraternity's Community Service Award. Gravely was also the banquet guest speaker. MIDWEST DETROIT, MICHIGAN The Livingstone House in Detroit was scheduled for demolition, but the historic minded Brothers of Gamma Lambda Chapter decided that it should be preserved. With a bid of one dollar Gamma Lambda was able to save this historic Detroit landmark. With the purchase came more than $300,000 in federal money for restoration of the house. The landmark will now be moved across the street from the Alpha Fraternity House owned by Gamma Lambda. This effort gave us additional incentives to capitalize on other projects in the chapter. This included our annual Bowl-A-Roma scholarship effort which netted over $6,000. Additionally, we were able to raise $ 1,500 for the UNCF. We were also able to pool the resources of the Black Greek community in a program known as O.A.K.S. (Omegas, Alphas, Kappas, and Sigmas in the Motor City). Together, we aid youths to become successful and responsible as they mature. Our efforts did not go unnoticed. At the Michigan District Conference we were named "Alumni Chapter of the Year" and our own Brother Stan Fields was named "Alumni Brother of the Year."

Brother Les Willis is president of the United Black Pan-Hellenic Council, and Brothers Charles White and Duane Broussard are cocaptains of the University basketball team. Black History is celebrated nationwide during the month of February, but the Brothers of Epsilon Kappa decided to extend the recognition of contributions made by African-Americans. Famous and notso-famous African-Americans will be featured every month on the Bradley campus. A basketball tournament raised funds for the chapter's scholarship program; when new students arrived on campus, Alphas were among the "Big Brothers" on hand to help them get adjusted; victims of Hurricane Andrew benefited from food and clothing drives sponsored by Epsilon Kappa; and chapter members were among tutors for grammar and high school students at the local Urban League.

Science Fair winners receive cash prizes. In addition to annual sponsorship of the Science Fair, Alpha Phi Lambda makes an annual contribution to the YMCA, UNCF, and the George F. Newell Scholarship Fund at Winston-Salem University. Like many cities across the nation, Winston-Salem has named a major thoroughfare in honor of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Alpha Phi Lambda played a key role in this decision and, through the state's "Adopt a Highway" program, is responsible for the cleanup of the thoroughfare named in honor of Brother King. Chapters at Wake Forest and Winston-Salem join Alpha Phi Lambda in this cleanup effort. OXFORD, MISSISSIPPI Mississippi's most recently chartered (November 1992) alumni chapter, Pi Sigma Lambda, is off to a good start. An endowed scholarship fund is at the top of their agenda.

ALCORN STATE UNIVERSITY The Brothers of Delta Kappa want to see more African-American students enroll in post secondary education program. And as a manifestation of their belief that "education is the key to the future," the chapter has launched project "Raw College." Between and after classes, Brothers are visiting local and area high schools promoting the value of continuing education, to include the admission process.

During his two year tenure, as Solicitor General, Marshall was responsible for winning the Supreme Court approval of the Voting Rights Act of 1965, and joined a suit which overturned a California statue which prohibited open housing. With the retirement of Supreme Court Justice Tom Clark, Brother Marshall was nominated as his replacement by President Johnson in 1967. Once again his confirmation faced stiff opposition from southern Senators. One of those against his nomination was North Carolina Senator Sam Ervin, Jr. "For years, if not forever, the American people will be ruled by arbitrary notion of The SphinxlSpring 1993

preme Court Brother Marshall would receive his last official honor from the Fraternity. At the 60th Anniversary Convention in St. Louis he was awarded the Alpha Award of Honor of the Century by General President Lionel Newsom. It was during this convention Brother Marshall gave a stirring address marking the 110th year anniversary of the Dred Scott Decision which was reprinted in the December 1966 issue of the Sphinx.

Thp Changing of Perspective He joined in writing majority opinions with many of the courts liberal thinkers who came to be known as the (Earl) Warren Court. As the sixties gave way to the seventies many of his Warren

was Bakke's contention that he was denied admission because certain positions had been held open to Black students, some of whom may have had lower grades. The Supreme Court ruled 5-4 in Bakke's favor. Brother Marshall joined the dissenters. Historians say this case marked the unraveling of the prevailing liberal point of view of the Warren Court. Dissenting became the order of the day for the court's lone minority voice during the Republican administrations of Presidents Richard Nixon, Ronald Reagan, and George Bush. As more and more of the liberal justices were being replaced by conservatives it was Brother Marshall's lone voice in dissent. The aging Justice during a late 1980's interview, "I don't know how long I can hold on." Prior to his retirement on June 27, 1991 Marshall wrote his last dissenting opinion in Payne versus Tennessee, "...Cast aside today are those condemned to face society's ultimate penalty. Tomorrow's victims may be minorities, women or the indigent." Citing poor health Brother Marshall left the bench. While the body may have tired he continued to press ahead. As recently as last year Brother Marshall volunteered to serve on a three judge appellate panel in his home town of Baltimore, Maryland. His last scheduled public appearance was to have Page 23

been at President Bill Clinton's inauguration where he was to have given the oath of office to Vice President Al Gore, but he was hospitalized. The legacy of Brother Marshall's contribution to this nation is unmatched. Like the Jewels of Alpha there was nothing like him before and there will be

nothing like him to come. His methodology of handling cases stands as a testament to our credo, "first of all, servants of all, we shall transcend all." How would he like to be remembered? "Doing the best I could with what I had."

On June 27, 1991, the day Mr. Marshall announced his retirement, the court in Payne vs. Tennessee permitted victim-impact evidence to help prosecutors seeking death sentences. Mr. Marshall, in dissent, said: "Cast aside today are those condemned to face society's ultimate penalty. Tomorrow's victims may he minorities, women or the indigent."

ALPHAS HONOR MARSHALL WITH CANDLE LIGHT VIGIL 19 Wff 06

Washington- Three hundred members of Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity, Inc. braved freezing temperatures to honor the late Supreme Court Justice Thurgood Marshall, a celebrated American Alphas walk from Library of Congress to the steps of the and member of the organization. Supreme Court. Walking from the Library of Congress to the steps of the Supreme Court the group sang "We shall Overcome" as they created a perimeter on the steps. One of the notables in attendance was Virginia Congressman Brother Robert Scott, observed: "If it had not been for Justice Marshall's efforts I wouldn't have been able to attend Harvard Law School, and many of these individuals gathered here tonight would not have risen to their levels (in Business and Government)." Eastern Regional Vice President John A. Mann said: "Let it always be a light for us to remember, that one man can make a difference. That each of us can make a difference. We shall never be told what we can not do...and we shall always strive to do better." Brother Jeffery Sellers, of the University of the District of Columbia, may have summed up his meaning to all Alphas who will look to Brother Thurgood for inspiration. Sellers said, "I need to be here, his struggle is my struggle and I am going to be the one who will have to continue it in some shape and form." The day following candlelight vigil, General President Milton Davis lead a contingent of Brothers attending the funeral for Brother Marshall at the Washington National Cathedral. 1

MARSHALL EULOGY Editors Note: The following address was delivered at the Washington Cathedral by Brother William Coleman for the state funeral of Supreme Court Justice Brother Thurgood Marshall. We are here today to remember and cherish the life of a giant, the 97th Justice of the Supreme Court of the United States. There were none like him before, there will be none like him after. Leader, lawyer, husband, father, one of the few who became truly a great American. Fourscore and four years ago, Mr. Justice Thurgood Marshall, son of the State of Maryland, joined this nation's vibrant, freedom loving people to give real meaning to what that earlier son of Illinois struggled to achieve yet left unfinished in 1865: namely, that in the United States all are to be equal and free of racial discrimination. As seldom happens, and certainly rarely in human endeavors, Marshall achieved even more. Lincoln at Gettysburg thought his 279 words would be little noted nor long remembered. Yet those words and their author were long remembered. Thurgood Marshall remembered those words. He picked up where their author left off. We will be frightfully delinquent if we let our nation forget what Marshall did here. Thurgood Marshall's legal successes as advocate for the NAACP Legal Defense Fund, Solicitor General, Judge and Associate Justice, freed Negro-Americans of most racial segregation and discrimination. In addition, the legal revolution he wrought also created the precedents which protect women from comparable wrongful private and governmental conduct. His legal triumphs also freed all Americans from unfair trials, from invasion of privacy of our bedrooms, and from deprivation of the right to vote. We observe the President here. Please do not think us ungracious when we wonder aloud if a son of Arkansas would be here if Thurgood Marshall in that hot summer of 1958 had lost, not won, the Little Rock school case. Would he be here if Marshall had lost, not won, the important voting rights cases? Could there be a Cabinet reflective of the American people if Marshall had lost Brown v. Board of Education or the voting rights cases or had not established the precedents for recognizing similar equal protection rights for women? And as we look at our Secretary of State, how could Warren Christopher, with his sensitivity travel the worldâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;now 80% non-white and 52% The Sphinx/Spring 1993

non-maleâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;saying that American democracy was the best form of government to let the human spirit be free and feel independent if Marshall had lost Brown v. Board of Education or the voting rights cases or had not established the precedents for recognizing similar equal protection rights for women? Our two big defeats, the minority contractor set aside case, and the case that denied the use of suburban schools to desegregate the downtown schools in Detroit and elsewhere, occurred solely because we did not have Marshall's eye as an advocate on our side of the Bench. He would have developed the correct record and arguments. He would have successfully relied on the law to help heal this deepest wound in the social fabric, certainly with respect to public schools. But Marshall also taught us at the Legal Defense Fund in the voting cases the courage to regroup. We will do so again. Others talk about Justice Marshall as the brilliant lawyer, advocate, scholar, judge, raconteur, humorist, lover of family and his country. I instead described Marshall as another Chief Justice described Holmes since Justice Holmes fought for the same values on the battlefield at Antietam that Justice Thurgood Marshall fought for in the court rooms South and North. I do so not by writ of poetic license, as I am no poet, but by the writ of truth, as truth it is: In Marshall one saw beneath the court room suit and later beneath the "judicial robe the chivalry of a knight: a complete human life, unmarred, unified by intelligent purpose and uninterrupted accomplishment, blessed by great talent employed in the worthiest activities, with a deserved fame never dimmed and always growing." And I add a vibrant man with great subtle wit and humor. What gave Justice Marshall the drive to do (in the words of that Episcopal confession) what was right and refrain from doing what was wrong: first, love and pride of country as reflected in the Battle Hymn of the Republic. Indeed, he often remarked that it should be our National Anthem. Second, love and pride in family. And, third, as stoic, determined, but self-aware philosophy that is best expressed in a chapter from the Bible called Corinthians (1 Corinthians, Chapter 15, Verse 10): "But by the grace of God I am what I am: and his grace which was bestowed upon me was not in vain; but I labored more abundantly than they all: yet not I, but the grace of God which was with me." Often when Marshall looked at the horrible, devastating effects that unfair

public or private policies in this country caused for the least of us, he was heard to mutter: "There but for the grace of God go I." This was Thurgood Marshall's true grace. He has bequeathed it to Mrs. Marshall, Thurgood, Jr. and John, and to the country, if we bend, as they have, our will to be worthy of it. I ask three things of those who hear my voice: first, judge this rare human being, this colossus among men, by the content of his mind and character, his sheer guts and courage, his sense of morality and fairness, his legal skills in multifaceted areas, many having nothing to do with race. Next, let us highly resolve to dedicate ourselves with the last measure of our devotion to the unfinished tasks that still so starkly scar this wonderful land: poor housing for a fifth of Americans, many inner city public schools that harm rather than teach our children, disparity in the distribution of governmental support to schools and other institutions in various parts of the state based upon wealth not need in the particular county, the unfinished business of creating an economic and political system that makes it possible for all Americans to rise to the best of their ability regardless of race or gender, and that removes with finality and fairness the deleterious effects of 300 years of racial and gender discrimination. Thirdly, to those still unwillingly bounded in the barrios, in the ghettos, in the devastated urban areas or neglected rural lands, or indeed in any condition not fully civilized, prepare and work your hearts out as Marshall did. For Justice Marshall's toils in the vineyard created a mood and energy throughout this land. His legacy will judge each passing year, each public official, each corporate executive, each teacher a failure if this nation falters in its drive to make those wonderful words in the Declaration of Independence, the Bill of Rights and the Constitution a living reality for all. The discriminating ear might perceive some phrases from Lincoln's Gettysburg Address. That is not unintentional. For history will ultimately record that Mr. Justice Thurgood Marshall gave the cloth and linen to the work that Lincoln's untimely death left undone. As with the discoverer of Ecclesiastics, Marshall has given us an additional inheritance. Now Thurgood Marshall, like Lincoln, belongs to the ages. It will be a tragedy of gargantuan proportions if this nation does not have the will and moral courage to finish these two giants' unfinished business.

When Bob joined GE's Manufacturing Management Program, we sent him straight to New York, to help supervise rebuilding the city's subway cars. Adding to the challenge was a work crew that spoke little English. Despite the language barrier, Bob quickly became a leader. He learned that motivation is an important part of communication. Now, just two years later, Bob's completed another three challenging assignments. Each has been a crash course notjust in manufacturing technology, but in h u m a n relations. What's Bob's secret to successful teamwork? Adaptability. Supportiveness. A willingness to listen to new ideas. Qualities that not only define Bob, but define the worldwide GE culture as well.

Florida; Darnell Van Rensalier, a music major from New Jersey; and Carl Martin, an English major from Louisiana. The fourth member is Mr. Garfield Bright, a political science major from Louisiana. Gay lead Beta Chapter's Sphinxman Quartet in the Spring of 1990. Van Rensalier and Martin were members of the Quartet. Charles Graham, who was on the Sphinxman line, but not a member of the Quartet, believes the pledging experience had a positive impact on the birth and rise of "Shai." Brother Martin says, Marc constantly reminded them not to neglect anything, "don't forget why you are here." They all acknowledge the most important lesson was probably to never give up. While not a member of Alpha Phi Alpha, Mr. Bright recognizes this "survivability mentality." "We have the same type of mind set. While I may not have the Fraternity experience, I have gone through some experiences which are comparable to the Fraternity." The group's first effort to break into show business focused on producing demos, participating in variety shows, and attending Teddy Riley's musical camp (Riley was lead producer on several tracks for Michael Jackson's Dangerous album). You could not classify their first year's effort as a success. The group failed to find a sympathetic ear. "We went to New York to meet with a few record labels," Martin remembers. "They ended up turning us down, so we decided to take destiny into our own hands." While attending a weekend charity baseball game, "Shai's" future was competing with Martin's interest in the baseball game. He gave a Washington, D.C., disc jockey, who was also attending the game, a demo tape of the group's song, "If I Ever Fall in Love." The rise to the top was about to move into high gear. The song was aired as a part of the station's programming of local talent. In less than a week, "If I Ever Fall in Love" was part of the station's regular rotation. Other radio stations requested the group's single. Radio stations beyond Washington, D.C., got word of the song's increasing popularity. It was time to "cut a record deal," and the group signed with Gasoline Alley Records in September 1992. The first single from their debut CD, "If I Ever Fall in Love," went to the top of R&B charts. "Comforter," their second single (currently number 4 on the R&B charts and 13 on the Hot 100 chart), is expected to reach the top of R&B charts. This new found fame has put them on the fast track.

"It's been a worldwide promotional tour," says Van Rensalier. "We've been to Europe, London, Australia, and too many cities to list in between. All this in six months." Martin is the Quartet's production leader, while the entire group contributes to the writing and other aspects of their work. "When I compose a song, I keep everyone's strong points in mind," Martin said. "You see, Marc has a very strong ear, he can tell everyone where they need to be. And Darnell is one of those people that demands attention, so he needs to be in the forefront with Garfield running a close second." "I knew they had potential, but I didn't realize they'd be so successful so quick," Graham says about

"The blend that we have after such a short period of time is, I think, remarkable," Van Rensalier observes. "We study the artists that stand above us—the Michaels(Jackson), the Janets(Jackson). It's a matter of seeing what's above the standard and striving for that as a group. Our performance, our style, even our name—'Shai' meaning personification of destiny—makes us special. I truly feel we are destined to make it," Van Rensalier maintains. Destiny may have been one of the reasons they were asked to participate in President Bill Clinton's Inaugural Showcase. "It was an honor to be asked," says Van Ren-

salier. Initially the group didn't think it was that important. However, their impression began to change once they were backstage. "The big name individuals (Diana Ross, Aretha Franklin, and Quincy Jones) came over and recognized us! It was awesome," says Van Rensalier. Academically, Gay is the only group member who has completed his studies at Howard University. The remaining members (Van Rensalier, Martin, and Bright) have put their academic careers on hold. It was a thought that was not lost on Brother Martin's mind. "We've got to finish what we've started, 'somehow', he promises."

TAMPA, FLORIDA Gamma Zeta secured a March of Dimes grant to support its Project Alpha program. Teen pregnancy, male responsibility for pregnancy and parenting, career goals and goal setting, and sexually transmitted diseases were among the topics covered during the Project Alpha workshops. The busy program year for Gamma Zeta Lambda also included: the Founders Day celebration, Martin Luther King Birthday Observance, the play, "Ceremonies in Dark Old Men," the Black and Gold Ball, and the Men of Tomorrow Scholarship program. Gamma Zeta also brought Christmas cheer to an adopted family with both food and financial assistance. SOI THWEST LITTLE ROCK, ARKANSAS Pi Lambda, reported to be the oldest chapter in the Southwest Region (chartered in 1926), held its 42nd annual Debutante Ball in December. Fifty-five young ladies were presented during this annual gala. In addition to the young women the Debutante Ball supports, young men get attention from Pi Lambda through the chapter's alliance with Law and Government Post #21 which emphasizes leadership among neighborhood youth.

Young men and women are mentored by Alphas in the Little Rock School District's Partnership in Education program. Pi Lambda have committed resources to assist an elementary school. Two Brothers are deputy registrars in the Little Rock community, and the chapter is a participant in the Adopt-A-Highway Program which makes them responsible for the upkeep of a two-mile stretch of Arkansas Highway. WITCHITA FALLS, TEXAS The Brothers of Rho Mu and Omicron Chi Lambda Chapters in Wichita Falls, TX received major news coverage from local media in their first ever project Alpha Program. Coverage by the local television stations gave greater exposure to this worthwhile effort. A total of 33 Brothers, group leaders and teenagers attended the workshop. Topics addressed included the reproductive system, sexually transmitted diseases, social and moral issues of teenage pregnancy, substance abuse, and legal issues. The continued involvement of Rho Mu and Omicron Chi Lambda in community activities included male mentoring programs, "Big Brother" programs, tutoring and Headstart, Martin Luther King, Jr. Memorial Services, and an annual scholarship program.

It was a difficult challenge, considering the condition of the facility, the Brothers agreed, but they insisted: "we proved to others and ourselves that no task is too big for Alpha men to handle." Kappa Nu also made a contribution toward supplies for children attending the Kiddie Care Day Care Center in Thidbodaux, and they were on hand to help families who lost their belongings to Hurricane Andrew. Chapter Advisor Garyland Wallis was not successful in his re-election bid for the Terrebonne Parish Council, but he had the active support during the campaign of Kappa Nu.

There is a focus on youth and community leadership in San Jose, CA. Eta Sigma Lambda has conducted Project Alpha programs for the last six years, but last year's effort received high marks. Some 70, 10 to 15-year-olds, were bused to the neighboring Santa Cruz Mountains for a weekend of straight talk about sexually transmitted diseases, teen pregnancy, legal rights and responsibilities, drug abuse, and other subjects. Three years ago, the local Urban League cited Eta Sigma Lambda chapter for providing the Project Alpha program to youth in San Jose. Chapter representatives are active in the annual UNCF Walk-athon, Chefs for UNCF, and the UNCF Corporate Campaign and Telethon. Additionally, you can find Brothers heading up the local chapter of the NAACP, and serving as the chairperson of the March of Dimes Public Affairs Committee. Brother Haymon Jahi was recently recognized by Dollars and Cents, a national magazine, as one of the outstanding Black Corporate leaders in America.

When Eta Psi Lambda honored Black male seniors from Tucson Metropolitan area high schools last year, it was the 20th consecutive time the activity had been held. All of the honorees were high academic achievers.
