Chapter History
Initially chartered Tuesday April 13, 2004, the Howard Pre-Law Chapter was reactivated when two friends thought of an organization that would bring together students, from all schools and majors on Howard’s campus that believed in Law and Service and only Phi Alpha Delta Fraternity International fit that vision. Also coming up with the idea to place brothers into a particular house, the founding group decided to name the houses after famous African-American attorneys whose passion for law, service and equality brought about change to the lives of blacks in America. Thus, the 4 houses of the Howard Pre-Law chapter were born; The House of Thurgood Marshall (House of Marshall), The House of Johnnie Cochrane (House of Cochrane) The House of Shirley Chisholm (The House of Chisholm) and The House of Carol Moseley Braun (The House of Moseley Braun). A group of individuals, brought together by their common interest in the law, and their love for service, had the idea to reactivate and charter this chapter.
In total, 22 members made the reactivation and chartering of this chapter possible. Those 22 people were: Brother Orville Aiken, Brother Marquis H. Barnett, Brother Andrea Nicole Brown, Brother Lindzey Cooper, Brother Michael Cruz, Brother Kathlyn Desravines, Brother Joshua Dillard, Brother Corryn G. Freeman, Brother Kimberly Glover, Brother Anique Hameed, Brother Melissa Hamilton, Brother Vincent A. Kelley, Brother Courtnii Lamar, Brother Crishemma Livingston, Brother Blair Matthews, Brother Victoria McDonald, Brother Sandy Merilan, Brother Victoria C. Miranda, Brother Michael Roy, Brother Justin Stevens, Brother Cashia Thomas and Brother Miguel Willis.
