In 2018…twenty brothers filed a petition for a charter and a decree for the establishment of a chapter in Greenville, Texas. Both brothers understood the lack of coverage in the eastern portion of the metroplex and sought to create a chapter that would both support the communities east of Lake Ray Hubbard but wanted support brothers that had no way to become re-engaged with our grand clan.

In 2017 Brother Christopher Butler and Brother Kendall Smith, both Eta Phi initiates, conceived the idea that a chapter of Kappa Alpha Psi Fraternity should be chartered in east of Lake Ray Hubbard.
