A house RESOLUTION

 

TO DECLARE MARCH 25, 2026, AS "OMEGA DAY AT THE SOUTH CAROLINA CAPITOL," TO CONGRATULATE OMEGA PSI PHI FRATERNITY INC. AT THE CELEBRATION OF ITS ONE HUNDRED FIFTEENTH ANNIVERSARY, AND TO HONOR THE ORGANIZATION FOR ITS WORTHY HERITAGE AND MANY ACCOMPLISHMENTS.

 

Whereas, Omega Psi Phi Fraternity Inc., founded in 1911 at Howard University, is a historically Black fraternity grounded in the principles of manhood, scholarship, perseverance, and uplift; and

 

Whereas, for well over a century, the fraternity has demonstrated a consistent commitment to leadership, academic excellence, civic engagement, and community service; and

 

Whereas, during Omega's long and illustrious history, many members of Omega Psi Phi Fraternity have excelled in the fields of their calling, and there are very few Americans whose lives have not been touched by a member of this fine fraternal organization; and

 

Whereas, its members have played a meaningful role in the fields of education, public service, and youth mentorship, as well as in the formation of initiatives that strengthen and uplift underserved communities; and

 

Whereas, gratefully, the House of Representatives congratulates Omega Psi Phi Fraternity at the celebration of its one hundred fifteenth anniversary and salutes the organization for its enduring legacy of service and its positive impact on the people of South Carolina and our great nation. Now, therefore,

 

Be it resolved by the House of Representatives:

 

That the members of the South Carolina House of Representatives, by this resolution, declare March 25, 2026, as "Omega Day at the South Carolina Capitol," congratulate Omega Psi Phi Fraternity Inc. at the celebration of its one hundred fifteenth anniversary, and honor the organization for its worthy heritage and many accomplishments.

 

Be it further resolved that a copy of this resolution be presented to Omega Psi Phi Fraternity.
