Yeah, it works at the HBCUs (the Alpha Phi Alpha brothers calling themselves Alpha) since the only other one of the NPHC that starts with Alpha is Alpha Kappa Alpha, and they *always* go by AKA.

I don't know if Alpha Phi Alpha would be less likely to go by "Alphas" at places with huge systems like U of Illinois. Given that I don't think there are any of the NIC fraternities that go by Alphas, it wouldn't surprise me.

And anyone who gets ASA confused with APhiA needs more than their eyes checked.
