About BLI

On April 9th, 1949, the Brooklyn-Long Island Alumni chapter was chartered as the Brooklyn Alumni Chapter, with the vision to spread the concepts and ideas of Kappa Alpha Psi in the Brooklyn community. The chapter’s original title, The Brooklyn Alumni chapter, was later changed in 1960 to the Brooklyn-Long Island Alumni chapter because a number of brothers from Brooklyn moved to Long Island and brothers from Long Island joined the chapter. Brother Enos S. Andrews was the Province Polemarch who installed the chapter.
