Mobile Kappa League President Farewell
Out of my four years in the Mobile Kappa League, I, as well as my Kappa League brothers in the program, gained much more than we anticipated. From my first introduction to the program, I knew it was something special. Rarely is there an intervention program that can supplement the growth of a young man like myself in the absence of his father. Nevertheless, the Mobile Kappa league provides this through its programs, philosophy, and membership.
To those new Mobile Kappa Leaguers and Mobile Kappa Leaguers of the future know that what is taught to you, implicitly and explicitly, in the program will lead you to success not only in high school but also in your careers and journeys into Manhood.
To those interested in supporting the Mobile Kappa Leaguers, please do and do so generously. The Mobile Kappa League has a positive effect on both the young men in the program and the community of Mobile at large. The data collected by the advisors (scholarship amounts, number of college graduates, etc.) supports my claims, and you can find more data and details on the Mobile Kappa League website at https://www.mobilekappaleague.org/mkl-results.
Lastly, in the spirit of the program, I will continue to strive to be #akutabove.
Paul Locket (KL President 2017-2018)
