Impact on Campus:     Getting Kappa Eta chapter established on Seton Hall's
                      campus.
                      Getting permission from the Seton Hall administration
                      to proceed with establishing a black Greek fraternal
                      organization on campus.
                      We overcame it by having relationships with key
                      individuals in positions of power on campus, most
                      notably Lee Cooke, Director of Admissions, John Moon,
                      Head track coach and the EOP staff.
                      We were trailblazers and paved the way for generations
                      of young Black men to come.
