Beta Rho Chapter is associated with which university?

• A. Shaw University
• B. St. Augustine's University
• C. Duke University
• D. University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill

Answer: (A)

This item tests which campus hosts the Beta Rho Chapter of Alpha Phi Alpha. The Beta Rho designation is tied to Shaw University in Raleigh, North Carolina, which is why that campus is identified with the Beta Rho Chapter. Shaw University is a historic black university founded in 1865, and during the fraternity’s early expansion on HBCU campuses, the Raleigh site became the Beta Rho Chapter. The other universities—Duke University, St. Augustine’s University, and the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill—have their own Alpha Phi Alpha chapters with different names, so they do not carry the Beta Rho designation.
