He's not really "famous" really, but I just saw this in a copy of my school's alumni magazine. Brother Robert Wilkins, '86 (I think) was on CNN, talking with Greta Van Susteren, on her show. He's also been on CourTV, and a couple other shows. He's a lawyer in Washington DC, and specializes in racial profiling. I looked for the post on famous black people in NIC fraternities, and NPC sororities to post this there, but couldn't find it. Like I said, he's not real famous, but he's been on (inter)national TV several times, and he's a brother from my chapter, so i think it's pretty cool.

Question, I was watching the Real World Hawaii, and remembered that at one time I saw Amaya wearing a Kappa shirt (it was blurred out, but you could make out that it said Kappa Kappa Gamma) so Im guessing shes one? Any Kappa's opinions?

If you sift through the old posts, there are TONS of opinions regarding Amaya's Greek affiliation under "Real World Greeks". |
