The 1960s, specifically in the South, was one of the most tumultuous periods in our country's history and one of the most significant periods in the movement for the civil equality of African Americans. Being the first collegiate Greek organization for African-American men in this country, Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity, Inc. has always been at the forefront of this movement.

 

Chartered by eight distinguished men on April 16th, 1964, Theta Omicron Lambda has and continues to have a close working partnership with the Goldsboro/Wayne chapter of the N.A.A.C.P., the A.C.L.U., and several other civil equality-based organizations. The chapter has also taken several leadership roles in local community organizing initiatives and has worked with the local city government to promote effective change in our community. 

 

Our flagship 104-unit Alpha Arms apartment complex, wholly owned and operated by the chapter, has provided the community with affordable housing for over 40 years and continues to provide residents with a quality living experience. 

 

For over 50 years, Theta Omicron Lambda has continued a legacy of excellence that we aspire to maintain.
