About Omega Chi
The Omega Chi Chapter was founded in 1957 in Selma, Alabama by 12 men who were dedicated to the cardinal principles of Manhood, Scholarship, Perseverance, and Uplift. Since then, Omega Chi has initiated some of the most successful businessmen, politicians, educators, and engineers into our society.
The chapter relocated to Selma AL and to date, serves the Alabama Black Belt counties of Dallas, Perry, Wilcox, and Lowndes.
About Omega Psi Phi
Omega Psi Phi Fraternity, Inc. is the first international fraternal organization founded on the campus of a historically black college.
On the evening of November 17, 1911, Omega Psi Phi was founded inside the Science Building (later renamed Thirkield Hall) at Howard University located in Washington, D.C. The founders were three undergraduates — Edgar Amos Love, Oscar James Cooper and Frank Coleman. Joining them was their faculty adviser, Ernest Everett Just.
From the initials of the Greek phrase meaning, “friendship is essential to the soul“, the name Omega Psi Phi was derived. That phrase was selected as the motto.
Manhood, Scholarship, Perseverance and Uplift were adopted as Cardinal Principles.
