The vast majority of our members are in education, too, as were all but 2-3 of our Founders. And Howard started as a Teacher's College. That is because back then that was almost the only field that women could go into. My guess is the same could be said of AKA and ZPhiB, but I'll let them confirm that.

The Omegas are considered Delta's brothers, because they helped us fill out the necessary paperwork for the school and then one of them ran across the campus to file our application for us before the deadline.

Delta's colors are crimson and cream, because of two reasons. The Kappas called one of their fraters who then worked in administration at Howard and asked him to pull strings for us to get Founded on the campus. The other reason is if you separate the colors that make up pink, you get red and white.
