The Topical series consists primarily of material generated by the charitable and social activities of Sigma Rho. It contains documentation of Sigma Rho's relationship with undergraduate fraternity members. Also included in the series are internal Omega Psi Phi publications, such as national and district newsletters; external publications, such as news clippings.

The series also includes an online digital video invitation to the 2019 William DeHart Hubbard Scholarship Endowment Dinner. Co-hosted by the Phi chapter and the University of Michigan, the second annual William DeHart Hubbard Scholarship Endowment Dinner was held to raise money for the William DeHart Hubbard Scholarship Endowment Fund (also known as the William DeHart Hubbard Memorial Scholarship Endowment Fund). The dinner and fund honor William DeHart Hubbard, who was a Phi chapter member, University of Michigan alumnus, and the first African American individual Olympic gold medalist.

The video contains images and briefly describes Hubbard as well as five University of Michigan alumni who chartered the university's Phi chapter: Dewey Roscoe Jones, Lawson Edward Thomas, Howard Dobson Shaw, Floyd Howard Skinner, and John Richard Cottin.
