“Think Alpha Phi Alpha, talk Alpha Phi Alpha, and labor for the broad principles of idealism of which Alpha Phi Alpha was created, so that humanity shall look on us as a body worthwhile.”
With the words of the fifth general president echoing throughout the years, the fire of Alpha Phi Alpha burned in the hearts and minds of men of distinction with the guidance of Brother James E. Williams Jr. Sensing the need to spread the light of Alpha Phi Alpha, the brothers petitioned the headquarters to create a chapter in 1974. 16 courageous brothers stood on the shoulders of our beloved Jewels to charter an Alumni chapter. On July 7, 1975 Mu Beta Lambda was born.
