A tip of the cap is in order to the members of Phi Beta Sigma Fraternity as the long-standing fraternal organization celebrates its annual Founders Day. Established over a century ago on Jan. 9, 1914, at Howard University, the founding brothers made it a point to organize a Greek letter fraternity that would truly exemplify the ideals of brotherhood, scholarship and service.

Fast-forward to 105 years later, and those ideals are still going strong with a membership exceeding 290,000 worldwide. While all members are created equal, there are a few familiar faces on the fraternity’s roll worth mentioning. Here are some of the notable members of Phi Beta Sigma that caught our eye.
