JR was the main brother to recruite me into Phi Beta Sigma, Omicron Pi chapter. I remember him coming down to the Architecture Lab late one night when I was working on a project due the next day. Architecture was my major at that time. He dropped off a snack, wished me luck, and went on about his business. This was typical of this Brother. He hadn’t planned on running into me, but he still gave of himself for my best interests. JR, I already miss you Frat. Rest in Peace.

JR was a good brother, friend and mentor. I am going to miss him. He always had a way to make you feel better about yourself, even when you had litle reason to. JR, thank you for expecting more from me that I expected from myself. We love you and will miss you dearly.

Brothers: I found this doing a quick search for JR on google. its a reference to his senior project back in 1990 from Cal Poly:

Well said brother, MIP is hear to stay and we must use it wisely. Incorporate the Sigma Light, Perfection Scoop. We have a rich history, we should speak of it with joy and pride. As for the use of canes, we used tem at Arkansas State and the University of Memphis in 1980 and beyond, although we did not twirl them. The use of canes only made us more versatile in our routines.

Comment on Herbert Stevens Ask Smallwood 1936 by Bro. Craig Arthur

Although it’s good to see Bro. Dr. Herbert L. Stevens get some recognition, Mr. Smallwood’s answer is incorrect. The first chapter of any now-NPHC-affiliated fraternity chartered below the Mason-Dixon Line was Alpha Phi Alpha’s Gamma Chapter (Virginia Union University) in Richmond. Their third chapter was chartered in 1907.

It can be said that our Beta Chapter was the first chapter of any now-NPHC-affiliated fraternity chartered in the “deep South,” however.

Either way…Soror Turpeau was busy when she was studying at Howard.

Douglass Scholarship = arguably the first example of an education program in its infancy?
