The Heritage and Legacy
Kappa Alpha Psi Fraternity, Inc. emerged during a period of intense racial segregation in American higher education. Founded by Elder Watson Diggs, John Milton Lee, Byron Kenneth Armstrong, Guy Levis Grant, Ezra D. Alexander, Henry T. Asher, Marcus P. Blakemore, Paul W. Caine, George W. Edmonds, and Edward G. Irvin, the organization established its first chapter at Indiana University. The fraternity has since grown into a global network, maintaining a commitment to achievement in every field of human endeavor, a principle that remains the cornerstone of its identity since the 1911 charter.
The crimson and cream color palette serves as the visual identity of the fraternity, rooted in the original constitution and bylaws. The crest featured on this cap incorporates the scroll and the shield, symbols that represent the fraternity’s dedication to academic excellence and brotherhood. The inclusion of the Greek letters KΞΞ¨ signifies the historical lineage of the organization, providing a clear link to the founding principles established by the original ten members.
