I Have A Question For Cardiac
about Groove Phi Groove. It's obvious that your fraternity was founded on ideals similar to the ones espoused by the fraternities and sororities we're more familiar with. I was surprised to hear that G-Phi-G is almost fifty years old and has a large number of chapters and an active alumni base. Congratulations on your deserved success and prosperity.
Here's my question: What is the practical relationship between G-Phi-G and the other Black Greek organizations? I have friends who are Kappas, Alphas and Omega Psi Phi, and while they may be well aware of G-Phi-G I have never heard them mention it. I have a 1977 copy of Baird's Manual which lists Groove Phi Groove as a "service" fraternity at Morgan State along with Alpha Phi Omega and Iota Phi Theta. An asterisk in Barid's indicates that G-Phi-G is a local organization, which suggests that at least until 1977 G-Phi-G had not yet expanded to become national. Does G-Phi-G function within the Black fraternity system (ie. play sports, have parties, do philanthropy), or does G-Phi-G maintain a separation, or distance from the other more traditional Black Greeks? Also, since G-Phi-G was founded for the elevation of young Black men, do you have any white members?
Thanks. Groove Phi Groove is an interesting and certainly unique concept, and one that has obviously found success.
