Omega has continued to flourish largely because Founders Love, Cooper, Coleman, and Just were men of the very highest ideals and intellect. The Founders selected and attracted men of similar ideals and characteristics.
It is not by accident that many of America’s greatest black men are/were Omega men. To this date, there are very few Americans whose lives have not been touched by a member of the Omega Psi Phi Fraternity. Omega has a rich heritage to be protected, celebrated, and enhanced.
