The National PanHellenic Conference Presents Meet the Greeks
The National PanHellenic Conference (NPHC) Fraternities and Sororities at Frostburg State University held, “Meet the Greeks” Wednesday, October 26, 2011 from 8pm-10pm. The following fraternities were a part of the showcase. The first organization to perform was, Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity Incorporation. They explained that the Fraternity existed since April 6, 1977; they then went on to perform with the brothers of the Frostburg State University Chapter. “They never disappoint the crowd they are entertaining and professional”, said Britany Vanlandingham of Coppin State University. Alpha Phi Alpha finished their performance and then exited the stage. The next fraternity to perform was Iota Phi Theta Fraternity Incorporation. They just like the Alphas took the stage with the Frostburg State University chapter and also explained that they existed since September 19, 1963. As they took the stage a student shouted, “You’re the best Iotas”, and another student shouted “Do your thing guys”. They performed their routine and then exited the stage. The conference then had a brief intermission before the next organization performed.
At 8:45 pm Omega Psi Phi Fraternity Incorporation took the stage. Before starting their routine they made announcements pertaining to the Omega Psi Phi’s Centennial Founders Day Celebration being held November 12, at 9:00 pm. They then did a small skit about what it takes to become a member of their fraternity and then performed the song that their brothers sing while crossing. “They have to get better music but they are always so serious when they perform said, Eric Nixon a student at Frostburg State University”. After Omega Psi Phi left the stage the next fraternity to perform was Kappa Beta Gamma. “Although they are not well known they are really starting to show up”, said Cierra Morgan of Frostburg State University. They performed what peers call in Frostburg the party walk, and after they used canes to incorporate step moves. Then at the end of this performance Frostburg State’s Devin James sung the founders song of the frat.
The final organization to perform was Phi Beta Sigma Fraternity Incorporated who was founded, November 14, 1978. The first part of their presentation only involved the newest line members. With only two members the brothers of this organization danced to a newer song by the artist’s named Travis Porter. Then the other two members of the frat joined in and danced along with their brothers. After getting the crowd excited they finished also with using their sticks in their routine. At the end of the presentation all of the groups were given a round of applause and the students who attended where directed to the information tables set up in the Armah of the Lane center were they could learn more information about joining the organization who were involved.
