The Alpha Phi Alpha fraternity was founded more than 100 years ago. Fraternity brothers include the likes of Duke Ellington and Thurgood Marshall, and the fraternity is active today in helping to steer young black men towards college, through a program called Go to High School, Go to College. 

90.7's Matthew Peddie sat down with incoming Vice President of the Central Florida Chapter of Alpha Phi Alpha, Rodney Rackley, to talk about the fraternity’s focus on higher education.
