Over the last century, dozens of greek-letter organizations have been established to serve and uplift the minority community, promote scholarship and higher education, and maintain tradition.

Beginning with the brothers of Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity Inc., and ending with the brothers of Iota Phi Theta Fraternity Inc. in 1963, the “Divine Nine” – nine historically Black Greek Letter Organization (BGLOs) – has made an indelible contribution to not only the historically black college and university (HBCU) community – but to the world.
