Part 3:
Final Campaign: Where Do We Go From Here?
Q&A
What does I.F.M.G.L. stand for?
I.F.M.G.L. is an abbreviation for "Inclusion For Minority Greek Life"
Why is this important and how can it positively impact others?
I believe greek life diversity can help promote general campus diversity, and the presence of ethnic and religious houses makes students feel more at ease. Especially considering Greek life is one of the most important aspects of a student's social life away from schoolwork.
What are a few ways to help bring more awareness to this issue?
Going to high schools and informing students of color about minority fraternities and sororities because many students are unaware of their existence.
Having students in these fraternities and sororities to expressed their worries about not receiving proper resources for publicizing their social activities.
Students discuss specific improvements they want to make to promote diversity on their campus with their chancellor.
Comparing your school to other schools that have progressive systems that serve their students' needs and desires.
For example, conducting research on other schools (whether it HBCUs or other PWIs and comparing them to your PWI to determine what methods are working there that you'd like to implement in your cmapus)
Some other Institutions (either from HBCUs or other PWIs) that I've looked at and did some research over are:

Interviews:
To have a better understanding of what it's like to be a member of the NPHC Greek Organizations on a PWI, I decided to interview a few students who are members of one of the many organizations to obtain their own personal statements on the matter. The link to the interviews will be right below (click the SoundCloud icon to access the interviews).
Social Media:
I also have a Twitter account where I post and retweet comments made by other individuals regarding the exclusion of NPHC Greek Life Organizations. The goal of my Twitter account is to raise awareness about how Minority Greek Life Organizations are rarely recognized for their achievements. Instead, they are ridiculed, dismissed, or their presence is barely known. Raising awareness about this can help them gain recognition and the assistance they deserve.
