Their achievements as Kappa Men are all the more notable in light of the fact that Kappa Alpha Psi, to date, does not induct honorary members. Men of honor seek to be involved in organizations that will foster their development. Kappa Alpha Psi attracts a wide array of individuals, each with his own identity, under one common theme: Achievement. Kappa Alpha Psi is the ONLY Divine Nine Organization that does not have any honorary members. We do not ask famous people to become a part of the organization. They become a part of the organization first and then become famous.
