" The Bruhs"

"The Basileus Club"

The Rho Beta Chapter of Omega Psi Phi Fraternity was chartered on October 23, 1982 by 9th District Representative Clarence Wilson in Houston, Texas. Rho Beta Beta was conceived by a collective group of young graduate members of Omega who sought to give the Houston Coalition of Omega a sense of balance. The Chapter has received numerous accolades and awards at the national, district and local levels of the Fraternity and conducts over 20 community service projects each and every year.

Today, Rho Beta Beta  is made up of professional Omega men who characterize themselves as committed to the Fraternity's four Cardinal Principles: Manhood, Scholarship, Perseverance, and Uplift.
