Students watched in excitement as fraternity Kappa Alpha Psi presented their newest members during a probate at Bayou Park Sept. 6.

Originally postponed because of Hurricane Isaac, the presentation finally ensued and 10 new members were introduced.

Students and family crowded around the new members as they entered the park in unison, dressed in gray suits and red, white and black masks that hid their identities.

“Their attire was really nice and they had a very good choice of music,” said Stacia Palmer, an MBA student. “It really got the crowd excited for the show.”

The presentation began with a tribute to a recently deceased member of the fraternity and an introduction video followed.

During the presentation, while keeping their identities secret, the new members showed their knowledge of the fraternity’s founders and history, the Greek alphabet and more.

At the end, the newest members revealed their identities to the crowd, removing their masks one by one.

“I chose Kappa Alpha Psi because I felt as though the fraternity could help further develop my leadership skills, in addition to being another way to help service the community,” said Lincoln Powell, a senior mass communication major.

“Just to know that everyone came out to support you or one of your brothers is an awesome feeling. It is  really a joyous time,” said Powell.
