GPAA Celebrates Undergraduates Before Graduation

On May 9, 2024, the Gamma Pi Alumni Association (GPAA) celebrated the graduations of Brothers Dekedran Thorn, Arrington Robinson, Dewayne Timner, Terell White, and Joshua Compton. The GPAA has historically taken this opportunity to recognize and formally induct graduating seniors into the association. This is a generation of Kappas whose undergraduate experience was affected by the COVID-19 pandemic, but they persevered and made it through to graduate.

As part of the celebration, the GPAA dined at Table 100 in Flowood, MS with the graduates while imparting some knowledge about the transition from college to the workforce while stressing the fundamental purpose of Kappa Alpha Psi. As an added bonus, each graduate was presented with a graduation stole, gifted a 1 year membership in the GPAA, and was able to interact with Bro. Charlie J. Smith, who was also honored as part of the Gamma Pi 75th anniversary and is one of the oldest known Gamma Pi graduates initiated in 1954.
