I think the real issue (check out the guest book), is that it seems that they are trying to be a conglomerate of Alpha Phi Alpha, Kappa Alpha Psi, and Phi Beta Sigma. Their colors are red and gray, they have canes like the Kappas, they call themselves Alphamen, and they have a constitutionally bound? sister sorority like Phi Beta Sigma--ie Alpha Kappa Sigma Phi, like Zeta Phi Beta Sigma. Someone even speculated that the sister sorority was derived by taking the middle names of Alpha KAPPA Alpha, Delta SIGMA Theta, and Zeta PHI Beta. I won't even discuss the hand signs.
I don't think they are trying to be Kappa Sigs, nor do I think that they are aware Kappa Sigs exist, but who knows?
I just find it interesting, that's all.
