Gotcha. But according to the Delta Omicron website, the name appears to be Delta Omicron International Music Fraternity.

There used to be a fairly regular Delta Omicron poster here, Ginger, but it seems to have been about 2 years since she posted last.

The second African American woman to fly into space is a Delta. And as an active member of the sorority, she took our official banner on the shuttle with her.

The first is an AKA--kudos.

Actually there are so many Black women and women firsts that have been accomplished by Deltas and our sistergreeks that this thread could easily reach 100 pages in no time if we started posting them. Our respective websites can give you a peek.

The greatness of the NPHC sororities (and fraternities) is what our foremothers and forefathers accomplished in the times in which they lived. When you start naming those Blacks that were major, nationally known leaders chances are you can attach a membership to an NPHC org. to them.

I just got done driving from Northern VA down to Florida and back. I'm always on the lookout for letters on cars. I thought it was interesting out of all GLOs there are, I saw the most Delta Sigma Theta paraphenalia on the road.
Also, I work at The Limited and I always see AKA's and DST's in the store.

Yes, but look at Beta Theta Pi, their official colors are "delicate shades of pink and blue." That was taken right from the heraldry section of their national website <http://www.betathetapi.org/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=661&Item id=311>.

Yea, but have you noted that their flag and coat of arms use Red and a darker shade of Blue? I think that’s because the fellow who designed them hated pink (I’m sure an astute Beta can correct me if I‘m wrong on that one, though).
