ORLANDO, Fla. – Black Greek organizations came into the spotlight after Kamala Harris became vice president. Harris graduated from Howard University, a historically Black college, where she joined Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority, Inc. In 1930, the Black Greek organizations formed National Pan-Hellenic Council. Members of Black Greek organizations also emphasize education. Although life in a Black Greek organization can start in college, it does not have to end there.

There were six positive cases between the three sorority houses, according to UCF. UCF students on campus Tuesday were concerned about a possible spike in cases tied to Greek life. That’s not representative of the campus.”Earlier this month, Delta Delta Delta Sorority and Kappa Sigma Fraternity were also placed under quarantine after several COVID-19 positive cases between the Greek houses.
