SR 88 Mississippi Senate · 2026 Regular Session

Recognize 50th Anniversary of the founding of Mu Xi Chapter of Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity at USM.

This Senate Resolution recognizes the 50th anniversary of the founding of the Mu Xi Chapter of Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity at the University of Southern Mississippi. The bill formally acknowledges the chapter's history, which began in 1976 when 16 undergraduate students were initiated as charter members. It highlights the fraternity's broader legacy as a service organization founded by African American men and its contributions to the community. The resolution is presented to the fraternity chapter and the Capitol Press Corps for distribution, serving as an official commemorative gesture rather than establishing new policy requirements.
