Often shortened to "Acacia," or simply AKAK in some of the proud Southern chapters, Acacia is an international fraternity (thanks, Canada!) with a rich heritage. The guys generally have clean houses, pull decent grades, and know how to foster a genuine connection in the overwhelming nothingness of a vast, unflinching cosmos. These guys take pride in their creative party drinks and signature Acacia Gummies. Their national philanthropy raises money for kids whose lives suck and need medical treatment their parents can't afford. What they lack in general campus recognition, they make up for in top-tier party reviews authored by elite committees comprised of the most important and beautiful Party Review Babes™.
Stephanie: Are you hitting up Acacia Fraternity tonight for their Night on the Nile party?
Ellie: Yeah, it's the only time I'm really willing to go to a costume party IN COSTUME, you know what I mean?
Stephanie: Yeah, but their gummies are worth wearing a slutty toga all night.

Get the Acacia Fraternity mug.An African American fraternal organization founded on Friday, November 17, 1911, at Howard University in Washington, D.C. by three undergraduate students and their faculty advisor. The undergraduate founders of the Omega Psi Phi Fraternity, Inc. were Howard University juniors Bishop Edgar Amos Love, Dr. Oscar James Cooper and Professor Frank Coleman. The faculty advisor was Dr. Ernest Everett Just. The fraternity operated without official sanction until the university withdrew its opposition in 1914. Omega Psi Phi was incorporated under the laws of the District of Columbia on October 28, 1914. The fraternity is the first black national fraternal organization to be founded at a historically black college.
From its inception, the fraternity has worked to build a strong and effective force of men dedicated to its Cardinal Principles of Manhood, Scholarship, Perseverance and Uplift, and capable of giving expression to the hopes and aspirations of an unfree people in the land of the free. In 1927, at the urging of fraternity member Bro. Carter G. Woodson, the fraternity made National Negro Achievement Week an annual observance and it continues today as Black History Month.
In 1930, Omega Psi Phi became one of the founding members of the National Pan-Hellenic Council (NPHC). Since 1945, the fraternity has undertaken a National Social Action Program to meet the needs of African Americans in the areas of health, housing, civil rights, and education. Omega Psi Phi has been a patron of the United Negro College Fund (UNCF) since 1955 and provides an annual gift of $50,000 to the UNCF.
Omega Psi Phi offers college, graduate, and honorary membership to potential aspirants. College students must be matriculating towards a bachelor's degree at a four year institution, have 36 semester credits and maintain at least a 2.5 grade point average. An initiant into the graduate chapter must already possess a bachelor's degree. The fraternity grants honorary membership to men who have contributed to society in a positive way on a national or international level.
Today, Omega Psi Phi has over 700 chapters throughout the United States, Bermuda, Bahamas, U.S. Virgin Islands,Korea, Japan, Liberia, Germany, and Kuwait. There are many notable Omega Men recognized as leaders in the arts,the sciences, academics,athletics, business, civil rights, education, government, and science sectors at the local, state, district, national and international level.
