When I read their page, I thought that GPhiG was founded at Morgan State, the same place that Iota was founded.

MN

c You are correct MN. Their history profile shows GPhiG was founded October 12, 1962 at Morgan State.

We as all Greek Organizartons are All A Little Different so just learn, not be confratational about it!

That is the reason we are all here!:)

Hey SapphireSensation,

What sorority are you in? I am just curious cause I am from Brooklyn too.

8 to 9
 

I remember NPHC being the "Big Eight" back in the day, then along came Iotas and there was confusion about what to call NPHC....A few names bounced around, but I remember calling them the "Notorious Nine" maybe b/c B.I.G. was so "Big" at that time???? But I've heard both "Noble Nine" and the "Divine Nine"....which is correct, if either, and/or which do you prefer????

Wow, I have a new found respect...20 years of rejection is PERSISTANCE at it's best. Good for you, Iota Phi Theta. Live long and prosper ;).

to jwoods: The Divine Nine will do just fine.

to iotanet: Bravo; however, Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity, Inc. was definately not the first BGLO.


and my two cents:
As iotanet has clearly stated: Long ago, their were eight dominate black greek letter orgs that reigned across the nation, and in Sigma's [Phi Beta Sigma Fraternity, Inc.] case, across the globe.

These NPHellenic organizations were called the Great Eight simply because there were eight of them, and not because people choose not to recognize Iota Phi Theta Fraternity, Inc..

After Iota Phi Theta' was admitted into the national pan-hellenic council, the name was revised to what is now known as the Devine Nine.

Yes, there are some people (old skool) who choose not to recognize Iota Phi Theta', but not all of it has to do with their founding date...

Just the first to matter.



lol

Great job doing a search, but the last post before yours was in 2004.

Something to consider.

hee hee:D

no, to be highly recognized

...because we matter.
