ALPHA KAPPA ALPHA SORORITY, INCORPORATED
Program Spotlight
Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs) are the birthplace of majority of the Black Greek Lettered Organizations (BGLOs). Without Howard University in Washington D.C., Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority, Incorporated's course in history would be written differently. The 'Think HBCU' initiative pays tribute and reignites support of our nation's HBCUs.
The following HBCUs are dear to Pi Sigma Omega as a few of our chapter members have attended, graduated or were initiated into undergraduate chapters on these campuses. Click on the university seal to learn more about the specific HBCU.
