Morehead approved the installation of the markers at the recommendation of the Presidential Task Force on Race, Ethnicity, and Community.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThese markers represent the university\u2019s pride in the students and alumni who belong to these distinguished fraternities and sororities and our ongoing commitment to diversity, equity, inclusion, and belonging,\u201d said Morehead at the dedication ceremony. \u201cThese historically Black fraternities and sororities have been vitally important to our students and our community, and I am pleased that they are getting this well-deserved recognition.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Other speakers at the event included Justin Nixon, a 2020 UGA graduate who served two terms as president of the NPHC; Yvette Daniels, director of university relations for the Georgia Department of Public Health and the first Black woman president of the UGA Alumni Association; and Victor K. Wilson, vice president for student affairs at UGA.<\/p>\n<p>A crowd of spectators representing students, faculty, staff, alumni and community members gathered for the ceremony and to tour the marker installation. The markers, which are made of granite, bear the name and official seal of each fraternity or sorority, the date on which it was chartered and a brief history of the organization.<\/p>\n<p>Established in 1930, the primary purpose of the NPHC remains community awareness and action through educational, economic, and cultural service activities. Throughout their history, these organizations have helped to build community among Black students at colleges and universities across the country.<\/p>\n<p>The nine member organizations of the NPHC are: Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity Inc., Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority Inc., Kappa Alpha Psi Fraternity Inc., Omega Psi Phi Fraternity Inc., Delta Sigma Theta Sorority Inc., Phi Beta Sigma Fraternity Inc., Zeta Phi Beta Sorority Inc., Sigma Gamma Rho Sorority Inc. and Iota Phi Theta Fraternity Inc.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cToday is significant. It\u2019s historic,\u201d said Daniels, a member of Delta Sigma Theta Sorority, Inc., who earned both her bachelor\u2019s degree and juris doctorate from UGA. \u201cThis permanent site recognizing each of what I\u2019ve always called the \u2018Divine Nine\u2019 says that we are an integral part of the University of Georgia, and that we belong here, that our voice is heard here, and that we are seen here at the university.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>In May 1969, the Zeta Pi Chapter of Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity, Inc. became the first NPHC member organization to establish a charter at the University of Georgia. This was followed shortly thereafter by the Zeta Psi Chapter of Delta Sigma Theta Sorority, Inc. in November 1969. As the first two NPHC organizations on the UGA campus, they are also the fraternity and sorority, respectively, of the late Dr. Hamilton E. Holmes and Charlayne Hunter-Gault, the first two Black students at UGA. Mary Frances Early, the first Black graduate of UGA, is a member of Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority, Inc.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOur foremothers and forefathers have waited for this day, and we experience now the fruits of their labors,\u201d said Nixon, who is a member of Kappa Alpha Psi Fraternity, Inc. and a first-year student in UGA\u2019s School of Law. \u201cThey would be proud of who we are, what we\u2019ve accomplished, and the monuments that have been erected.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Similar projects have been launched at numerous other institutions including the University of Florida, University of Tennessee and the University of North Carolina \u2013 Chapel Hill. The Office of University Architects managed the project, which was completed in the Spring of 2021. Although the markers were recommended by the Presidential Task Force on Race, Ethnicity, and Community, other members of the University community have been involved including students, faculty, staff and alumni.<\/p>\n<p><em>The post <\/em><a href=\"https:\/\/atlantadailyworld.com\/2021\/10\/17\/uga-gives-special-recognition-to-historically-black-fraternities-sororities\/\"><em>UGA gives special recognition to historically Black fraternities, sororities<\/em><\/a><em> appeared first on <\/em><a href=\"https:\/\/atlantadailyworld.com\"><em>Atlanta Daily World<\/em><\/a><em>.<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>ATLANTA DAILY WORLD \u2014 A crowd of spectators representing students, faculty, staff, alumni and community members gathered for the ceremony and to tour the marker installation.
