With countless events and numerous organizations to work with, the umbrella organi- zations of the Interfraternity Council (IFC), the Panhellenic Association and the Black Greek Association, strove to coordinate and emphasize the positive as- pects of the Greek system. IFC president Larry Powell emphasized the overall goal for the Interfraternity Coun- cil. He said, We are committed to uniting the thirty-one member fraternities, as well as providing quality programming and leader- ship. In order to do this, Powell and the IFC executive board worked with the presidents of the fraternities in order to plan spe- cial events and address whatever issues that arose. Powell said, We held seminars on alcohol awareness, sensitivity to vio- lence against women, and hazing prevention. Vice President in charge of Community Service Josh Henschell said, There was a shift of emphasis away from IFC acting as a policing body and governing bodies ' There was definitely a i J. and a sense that we could count on each other for help and ad- vice. --Josh Henschell towards us becoming a serving and productive resource for the fraternity presidents. The Panhellenic Association also served an impor- tant role in coordinating events for its seventeen sorority chapters. Social Chair Julie Keating said, We held events such as the Michigames for incoming freshmen, as well as seminars to educate the members of our sororities. One such seminar dealt with eating disorders and how those living with a perso: with an eating disorder can be) of help. By providing strong! programming and leadership, the Panhellenic Association tried to further the overall goals of sisterhood for their seven] teen participating sororities. The Black Greek Associa- tion was another coordinating body that had goals for tht year. President Peter Tate said This year marked the thirtietli anniversary of the Black Creel] Association, and we reall wanted to reevaluate our goals duties, and responsibilities t( this campus. Tate spent a great deal o time adding to and revising th Black Greek Association ' s con stitution to make it more func tional. The main focus of th Black Greek Association w community service. Vic President Crystal Lander saie Every month we hold a com munity service project that e ery fraternity and sorority mu participate in. This is the tim that we get to do these things together, as a whole. Although they were separate bodies, IFC, Panhe and EGA worked closely together to head the Gree system. A summer program called Leadership 2017, gav the presidents of all three organizations, Larry Powel Rebecca Coggins, and Peter Tate, a chance to work close! with each other to develop specific goals for the year. story by Walt Nekrosious | layout by Virginia Hiltz IFC, EGA Panhel BGA Executive Board Front Row: Keisha Nichols, Serena Williams, Amber Gaines, Keisa Sterling, Srystal Lander, Peter Tate, Olisaeloka Dallah, Marvan Porter, Mia Butler, Veneice Daniels 252 + BGA IFC Panhel
