Then cross reference that information with your member directory (if you don't have one, ask a soror who does). Not everyone who posts on this site and says that they are a soror is TRULY a soror. I don't share anything with anyone I haven't met in person, especially sorors who have attended events with me that you have to actually register for.

Y'all know there are a grip of posers out there. Just be careful. When in doubt, DON'T.

Sisterly,

Soror Monique

That is what ESP is ALL about...

I wish some fool could cite some thangs to me...

Congratulations on reaching 100 years! I am not sure if anyone has posted this or not, but there is a great article featuring your centennial in February's Ebony magazine.

The ivy continues to spread and climb although we have turned 100 years old. As Soror Ranika says, "it can't stop, it won't stop..."

We had a WONDERFUL cluster program today in celebration of our centennial. Centennial International President, Soror McKinzie, graced us with her presence. Her speech was moving and motivational. Skip Mason, candidate for 33rd General President of Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity, Inc. was also in attendence, and had some impelling words of his own. What a day for the natural state!

The chapter took a pic with her. I'm undecided about the Ivy Ball. Will you be here?

The San Diego Union-Tribune printed a very nicely done article on Epsilon Xi Omega in their Currents/Passages section, which is a slice-of-life section that runs on Sundays. The writer is one of very few AfAm writers at the paper. Enjoy:
