In the late 1925, a group of Omega Men, consisting of educators on the campus of Fort Valley State College, began discussing the possibilities of forming an Omega Chapter in the Middle Georgia area. In December of the same year, they formally petitioned the fraternity for a chapter. The Supreme Council, under the leadership of Grand Basileus George L. Vaughn approved the petition and the charter was granted, thus the birth of Lambda Phi Chapter was achieved. The Lambda Phi Chapter of Omega Psi Phi was founded January 9, 1926 by Brothers William A Davis, William Frayser, Clarence Moore, Dr. C. E Dyer and L. R Bywaters. The Chapter was Charter on January 26, 1926 as Lambda Phi Chapter- Fort Valley, GA. However, in a need to service the brotherhood in the Middle Georgia Area and beyond, the Chapter received a second Charter on March 9, 1926. The Lambda Phi Chapter was re-Chartered as the Macon-Fort Valley Graduate Chapter. This marked a significant moment in the history, because Lambda Phi became the first African- American Greek Letter organization in the Middle Georgia Area. Lambda Phi Chapter was the first Black Greek Letter Fraternity organized in the Middle Georgia area.
