stillman Greetings brothers in Alpha, from the dynamic men of Epsilon Nu Chapter located at Stillman College Tuscaloosa, Alabama. For the past two years the brothers here have worked hard, excelling in leadership roles, playing important parts in numerous campus organizations, and striving to help make the Tuscaloosa area a better community. All of these things were done in an effort to carry the ever enlightening torch of the great Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity. During the first phase of our chapter's continuous program, the roster of brothers included Arthur Barnes, Clifton Bates, Sylvester Mims, Dwain Ingram, Earnest S h e r r o d , Samuel B r o w n , Willie Williams, Charles Hardy, Ira Jolly, and Vernon L. Scott, the latter of which passed up his senior year of college to attend Meharry Medical School. All of these brothers are now pursuing c a r e e r s in business, e d u c a t i o n , coaching and the military. Among the projects that we have undertaken are the Sickle Cell Anemia Awareness project, Voter Registration, and our chapter's annual scholarship award.

We have copped this award for the past three semesters, and are shooting for a fourth. Presently, the brothers of Epsilon Nu are enjoying one of the most successful years since the birth of the chapter. The Sphinx / May 1975
