Prior to 1958, there was no Alumni Chapter of Kappa Alpha Psi in Tuscaloosa County. The Birmingham Alumni Chapter was the nearest chapter to
Tuscaloosa. Two brothers living in Tuscaloosa were affiliated with
that chapter. They were Dr. J. W. Robinson and Lou Mims. Within a
short time, more brothers began returning to Tuscaloosa and the
Green County area at this time, we assembled at the home of Dr. J.W.
Robinson, 714-24th Avenue, for the purpose of initiating a chapter
here in Tuscaloosa. |

Guide Right |
||||||
|
In the infancy of Kappa Alpha Psi Fraternity when chapters were
blossoming and flourishing throughout the length and breadth of the
United States, both individual and collective efforts were being made to
incorporate meaningful programs into the various local chapter
activities.
The very foundation of Guide Right can be traced to the St. Louis Alumni Chapter and Leon W. Steward, who rightfully is dubbed as the "Father of the Guide Right Movement". According to THE STORY OF KAPPA ALPHA PSI, soon after the St. Louis Alumni Chapter's beginning in 1921, Brothers Leon W. Steward and J. Jerome Peters were assigned to study the needs of active chapters for guidance and funds and to devise a "meaningful an d practical approach" to the problem. Ultimately, Brother Steward, a Y.M.C.A. secretary, proposed a program of guidance to be designated as Guide Right, with the purpose of assisting high school seniors to choose and pursue useful careers, consistent with fraternity purpose. This program was immediately adopted at the local level and the 12th Grand Chapter adopted Guide Right as the national service program. The focus of Guide Right, from its inception, was to provide
scholarships to needy and talented students, and to inform young people
in the professions and career options. The basic concepts of Guide Right
may be summarized as follows. |
