Which individual is credited with establishing the second, third, and fourth chapters?

• A. Henry Arthur Callis
• B. Eugene Kinckle Jones
• C. George Biddle Kelley
• D. Robert Harold Ogle

Answer: (B)

The question tests how the fraternity expanded beyond its founding campus. After the first chapter was established, growth depended on leaders who could charter new chapters and bring in members at other schools. Eugene Kinckle Jones is credited with guiding that early expansion, helping to establish the second, third, and fourth chapters. His organizational leadership and effort to extend Alpha Phi Alpha beyond the inaugural campus were key to creating a national network of chapters, not just a single local group. The other founders were essential to the fraternity’s founding and early development, but Jones is recognized for playing the leading role in that initial wave of chapter establishment.
