Harvard
U of Penn
Columbia
Dartmouth
Cornell
Brown
Princeton
Yale

You need to stick with me, this is what my doctoral disseration is on.
The founder of AKA was Madam CJ Walker, who had 8 daughters. Each daughter attended a different Ivy League college (or in some cases, their female counter part, like Radcliffe or Barnard). Well, Walker's daughters joined forces with their mom and established the first sorority for black women.
Incidentally, each daughter married an Alpha founder, except for the Yale daughter, who got stuck with a Sigma.

I heard the Alphas each get a pyramid in their name after initiation. No?

Maybe her internet access only comes to GC and not useful search engines that help people find information ALL of the time.

Crack kills!
Yes! AKA is only for people at Ivy Leauge schools....duh! You are a lot smarter than ther other people interested in greek life. The cone on GC afraid to ask us questions and they use stupid search engines for information.
Fees start at $10,000 since we can afford to go to Ivy leauge schools we can afford paying top dollar!

Just let me know if you're going to be on 485 so I can stay off it that morning.
