First National Founder's Day
	First National Founder's Day Celebrating the 95th Founder's Day of Kappa Alpha Psi Fraternity, Inc., February 10-11, 2006 Our first National Founders’ Day was celebrated in February 2006 in Baton Rouge, Louisiana. Grand Polemarch Samuel C. Hamilton led an entourage into the region as the fraternity paused to pay homage to the 10 young men who were students at Indiana University in 1911.
	Bishop Eddie L. Long delivered the keynote address just days after hosting a nationally televised memorial service for Civil Rights icon Coretta Scott King at his church, New Birth Missionary Baptist Church, in suburban Atlanta, Georgia.
	In keeping with the advances of modern technology, the Founders’ Day program was simulcast across the nation and remained available for viewing for a month on our national website. Senior Grand Vice Polemarch Dwayne Murray, Southwestern Province Polemarch Dr. Chuck Carr Brown, and countless other brothers in Louisiana worked tirelessly to ensure the success of the inaugural venture. *Keflyn X.
