During the Eighth Annual Convention, which Brother was elected General President?

• A. Howard H. Long
• B. Henry A. Callis
• C. William A. Pollard
• D. Charles H. Wesley

Answer: (A)

The position of General President is filled through an election by delegates at the fraternity’s General Convention, where the national leadership is chosen for a defined term. At the Eighth Annual Convention, the delegates cast their ballots and Howard H. Long was elected to serve as General President, reflecting the group’s decision for who would guide Alpha Phi Alpha through that next period. This highlights how leadership is determined by the convention vote rather than by appointment or other means. The other individuals mentioned are notable figures in the fraternity’s history or served in different roles, but the records show Long as the elected leader at that specific convention.
