About Us

Our History

For over 25 years, the Atlanta Metro Chapter of the Norfolk State University Alumni Association has remained committed to upholding the Spartan spirit across the State of Georgia.

Through community service, student support, and purposeful engagement, the Chapter continues to make a meaningful and lasting impact—strengthening alumni connections and fostering pride in our shared legacy.

Founded on December 3, 1988, the Atlanta Metro Chapter was established by a dedicated group of Norfolk State University alumni who sought to unite fellow Spartans in the greater Atlanta area. Their vision laid the foundation for a strong, engaged network that continues to thrive today.

The Chapter was reactivated in 1998
