The Fearless 5:  Our Founders  
 
 
 
 
 
The second journey of the DIRTY PSI-cle leads you to an understanding of the Fearless Five, or the Five Founders of Pi Psi Fraternity, Incorporated.  On November 22, 1993, the Most Respected Steven Bradley Boyd, the Most Respected Kaunda Amin Gray, the Most Respected Brian LaVelle Curley, the Most Respected Bennie Clayborne Jackson, and the Most Respected Jermaine DeShawn Davis founded Pi Psi Fraternity.  With Pi Psi being formed in a time when student organizations disappear, the fraternity's possibility for success was a major concern.  After hours of planning, research, and hard work, the fraternity was established as a Greek organization on Sunday, October 16, 1994.  

After many long hours, Pi Psi fell into organizational limbo.  The Founders reached a difficult point in the structuring of the young Fraternity.  Issues arose such as what would be the focus of the organization, how would the founders' vision develop, and what individuals to select to assure a successful future.  During this time, the founders went through the legalities of starting an official recognized organization, such as petitioning for the University's recognition and registering the organization with the state of Michigan.  With a newly founded organization fresh in their minds, the desire to succeed in their hears, and a burning ambition in their eyes, great things were bound to happen for PI PSI.  Although the Founders ran into several roadblocks while striving to succeed, the Fearless Five realized that nothing was impossible.  The key to making Pi Psi grow, and extend its services, most importantly, was its membership.  

Something happened on Friday, April 28, 1995.  For on this day, the Founders crossed their first line, aptly named Tical.  This line brought four new members into the organization.  Another milestone occurred on on this date.  For on this Friday, Pi Psi  received its incorporation.  Thus, the name became Pi Psi Fraternity, Incorporated.  Another growth in membership occurred during the Summer of 1995 in the city of Detroit, MI.  The line inscribed into Pi Psi's history was Precision, which crossed on Friday, August 11, 1995.  With this Line, Gamma Chapter was formed.   

Be sure to look out for a more information concerning the Founders in the upcoming days.
