But classes do not officially start until the 28th.

Because we all know how active Greek life at Howard is in the critical time between Freshmen move-in and the first day of classes.

Well... it's not summer break anymore...

And actually the first Greek event WAS Freshman Move-In.

I believe there were some PIKES helping on that day, to keep this thread on topic. (One was pointed out to me by my undergrads... which is why I know they did not all graduate).

To keep the thread even further on topic, the original poster COULD just ask a Pike or wait for a response from a Pike, which neither of us are.

Good point, but the point of interest is still finding out how they are doing.

I hope this origninal poster finds out and let all of us know.

There have a grip of Pikes at HU. Me knowing a couple of the men affliated with the colony, I know it's not going to fail.

I'm a Pike and I asked a friend at Headquarters about the Howard colony. National is very pleased; I was told the colony has about 60 men and they are rushing in the manner of our chapters rather than through intake like the HBGLOs do.
I was against us going to Howard because of the perception of us interfering with someone else's established culture. I wanted a chapter that is identifiably one of ours, and not an IFC fraternity trying to imitate a HBGLO. From what I've heard, it sounds to me like we're on the right track.
There was a remark earlier about white guys. I'm told very few whites attend Howard so I assume that our colony is composed mostly if not entirely of black men.

congrats on that - and I hope that they become a strong healthy chapter

Our colony is actually 100% black. Brobuzz, u got jokes, kudos buzz. Interestingly enough we've gone international with it. Lots of us have graduated, but we are recruiting and still constitute a growing group of intelligent young brothers on campus. We're pushing for a charter soon. Wish us luck.
