  The awards reception was held in recognition of Omega Psi Phi's 2007 
Annual Achievement Week Observance. The concept for Omega Psi Phi's 
observance of Annual Achievement Week dates back to 1920. Omega Psi 
Phi's Annual Achievement Week Observance provides this storied 
association with the opportunity to recognize the notable achievements 
of African-Americans.

Academic Leadership Award and R.W. Snowden Scholarship Award are: Tyler 
Jackson, Andrew Clarke, Stefon D. Thompson, Dorian Calhoun, Ian
