I don't think the thread was lame either--it was very informative. But what did he add other than the word truth? Are you now a member of the Boule?

Interesting enough, if i didn't personally know some members of Omicron Boule (and trust they are not generally prominent) I would not know they existed. And while I understand that the org does not promote it's civic activities, for there to be no inkling at all here in the Twins is very telling, because our Black population it so relatively small.

What to me is sadder is that I had to find out about Raymond Cannon, and Hubert Humphrey being an honorary member from the book Divine Nine and greek message boards, because the alumni Alphas here became invisible years ago, except for an annual ball. What a information there is is on the Mu Chapter (collegiate) website.

It is the AKAs, Kappas, and Deltas that keep the NPHC alive in the Twins.

I think we can all improve our oganizations. As for Alpha, when Brothers decide who they will support for our national president I hope that they will consider the vision of the candidate regarding reclamation. I want a president that inspires me to do more for Alpha. In fact, I think we need to go back to some old ideals that held true.

I hate to hear that Alpha is not a leader in any community.

Interesting thread as all fraternal systems can be traced back to Phi Beta Kappa- It has been suggested by some that some founders of BGLOs were a part of the Masons and Eastern Star.
