i guess one interesting thing that people may not know is that our greek letters represent the kanji (in the middle) and chinese characters
Those characters "man, center, king" put together mean "leaders among men". and coincidentally that is also our motto

that's interesting! the one Lambda i know has that as a tattoo on his arm. i am surprised that your founders chose Epsilon over Xi, as it looks more like the "king" symbol.

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.

well if you separate the colors that make up green, you get blue and yellow...
