These are all good organizations but prospective employers may feel that you're not well rounded or capable of interacting with people from all walks of life. Consider joining organizations pertaining to your major, Hall Council, etc.

Definitely. Please NEVER limit yourself to the Black Student Organizations but @ the same time, do not leave them out of your life.
NETWORK for sure. You never know who you are sitting next to.
COMMUNITY SERVICE -- not just BECAUSE you want to join a sorority but BECAUSE you have been blessed in life and need to give back to others. A life of service is a GREAT THING.
Definitely talk to your professors and advisors on a regular basis. This is not meant to be a BROWN NOSER but you never know when you might need a favor, a recommendation, HELP, etc. That professor might remember you and be willing to help you out.
Have a RELIABLE backup for notes in classes in case you miss class.
