Not sure if you saw this:
The majority of our activities have a multicultural emphasis. You may also see chapters throwing club parties as fundraisers and doing other activities that are traditional to Greeks on a particular campus. A chapter might go ice skating together as a sisterhood builder and we certainly do have family events (BBQs, brunches, formal dinners, etc.)
As I mentioned, most of our activities have a multicultural emphasis. A family BBQ might include food and activities related to one or more cultures. Here are some of the activities that one of our undergraduate chapters recently put on:
-----------------------
Interracial Relations Part II (With Delta Theta Psi Sorority, Kappa Phi Lambda Sorority, Inc., and Lambda Theta Alpha Latin Sorority, Inc.):
This is a forum for people of different genders, races, and backgrounds to talk about interracial intimacy and sexual stereotypes. While most people will readily recognize that there is a certain “type” that they are attracted to, they rarely examine the societal influences on this seemingly personal feeling. Through dialogue about personal experiences and the broader social context surrounding issues of intimacy and sexuality, you'll gain insight into otherwise unrecognized stereotypes you might hold.
-----------------------
Deaf Culture 101 (With Hearing Impaired Students Organization (HISO) and Michigan Sign Club):
Join us for a screening of "Breaking Through the Silence," a film which sheds light on the lives of students at U of M with hearing disabilities. Check out technology geared towards Deaf individuals, learn some American Sign Language, and talk with hearing impaired students about what Deaf culture truly is.
-----------------------
Paranormal Phenomena:
Famed Psychology and Religious Studies professor Dr. Richard Mann will be discussing personal experiences and research on ESP, remote viewing, telepathy, and other paranormal phenomena. Get a chance to experiment with spoon-bending and other "out of the ordinary" experiences.
-----------------------
A Taste of Diversity
Come enjoy an all-you-can-eat buffet with foods from around the world, and top it off with chocolate fondue for dessert! Get a chance to spend time with people you wouldn't necessarily otherwise meet, and bond over a meal. Recipient of our $200 TNX Scholarship will be announced!
-----------------------
The Art of Interconnection:
View artwork created by student and local artists all reflecting themes of inclusiveness, multiculturalism, and celebrating diversity. Work in a variety of mediums will be displayed, including sculpture, comics, poetry, drawing, photography, and painting. Select pieces will be available for purchase through a silent auction, and food & drink will be served.
-----------------------
Pollution Prevention:
Join us as we help beautify Ann Arbor by cleaning up West Park, located at Huron & Chapin St.
