POLEMARCH'S PEN


Dear Brothers of the Southern Province:


   It is with utmost humility and pride that I have accepted the request of Grand Polemarch William “Randy” Bates, Jr. to become the 9th Southern Province Polemarch. In accepting this awesome responsibility to serve as a Province Polemarch in the 32nd Administration, I believe that I am prepared and ready to lead the great Southern Province of Kappa Alpha Psi into our second century of achievement.


   For the past six years, you have elected me to serve as your Sr. Vice Province Polemarch under the leadership of the 8th Southern Province Polemarch, Ronald E. Range, who is now a member of the Grand Board of Kappa Alpha Psi. I have learned a great deal serving with and under former Province Polemarchs Thomas L. Battles, Dr. Frank S. Emanuel, and Ronald E. Range. I have accepted this position knowing that with your assistance and God’s grace, my vision for the Province will only successfully build upon the foundation previously laid by each of them, as well as past Province Polemarchs Ullysses McBride and Robert T. Hughes. I am confident that the Southern Province will continue its progressive path of excellence.


   As we embark upon the second century of Kappa, I call upon each of you to rededicate yourselves to the principle of achievement. I call upon each of you to join me in our quest for greatness as a Province, and to commit yourselves to making the second century of Kappa significantly better than the first.



Yours in the Bond!

Linnes Finney, Jr., Esq.
Province Polemarch
