Ed Wood and I were Iota Phi Theta Fraternity Brothers. I went to Morgan State and visited Hampton many times. We started an Alumni Iota Chapter in Atlanta in 1976. The Chapter will celebrate its 45th Anniversary on Sunday December 5th at the Hilton Garden Hotel in East Point. My Cel is (301) 957-1150. Blessings, Edgar Johnson
