Pledging has been replaced by the Membership Training Academy (MTA). MTA is the process the Fraternity uses to admit men into the Fraternity. It combines attributes of the past membership process [that was intended to &#8211; teach aspiring members about the Fraternity, bond them with members affiliated with a local chapter and, test them on their knowledge] with a probation period wherein aspiring members demonstrated their understanding of these teachings and the value of bonding. The Program is absent of any physical or mental abuse.<\/p><p>If you have a strong desire and interest in becoming a member of Kappa Alpha Psi, contact the MTA chairman as soon as possible using our
