Mr. Howard is a member of the Board of Directors for Kappa Alpha Psi Fraternity Incorporated. He frequently speaks as Alumni at Virginia Union University to provide beneficial information for current undergraduate students.

I would formally like to request membership to Sigma Kappa Delta. Joining Sigma Kappa Delta means a great deal to me because it would allow me to have a long-lasting bond with my fellow Lone Star College Alumni. Being a Maverick has completely changed my life and I feel that being a successful student has been, in part, to the relationships I have established at Lone Star.

Alpha Kappa Alpha, Sorority, Incorporated purpose is to be of service to all mankind dealing with critical issues in communities domestically and internationally. What I have grown to understand an envision a woman of Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority, Incorporated to be, I accredit largely to the ladies of the Gamma Theta chapter. This has the result of attending many of the chapter’s events during my time at Hampton thus far. One of my favorite events was a screening of a documentary Girls Rising.

Living and being an example of the ritual in my everyday life is of my highest priorities. My commitment to this fraternity is unquestionable; I have attended four PIKE University events despite only being a member for a little over a year. I attend these events to better myself, my fraternity, and my community. I know that I can best represent the undergraduate members of our fraternity through the lessons and experiences I gained at PIKE University events. Attendance at these events provides exposure to multiple chapters and the trials and tribulations they face as well as the success stories. I can take their concerns and formulate plans to solve them, all the while using the principles and interest of the International Fraternity as

Members of Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity, Incorporated have made everlasting effects on my life. Having mentors in this fraternity allowed me to see how every member feels responsible for improving the communities that they are from. They never hesitate to take the leadership roles that are needed to see change. I would like to become a member of Alpha Phi Alpha because it would allow us to share a brotherhood with great men, it will allow me to make valuable connections with other positive men around the world, and it will help me become the best version of myself. My desire to become a member of this fraternity began my freshmen year after I attended the first informational meeting. At this meeting I was able to speak with members and also learn from them. They each have strong leadership characteristics that allow them to serve on executive boards across campus and they all are high achieving students at Cornell.

Kappa Kappa Gamma’s commitment to inspire women to be their best is second to none. We prepare our members for the future by offering a safe and supportive environment to learn life skills, become global citizens and gain firsthand knowledge of the satisfaction of making an impact. We offer connections through friendships, community partnerships and networking opportunities.
