Panel addresses Greek system and minorities
A panel of minority students and an audience of about 40 discussed issues surrounding racial and ethnic minorities in the Greek system at Chi Gamma Epsilon fraternity on Tuesday. At a school where the administration focuses its efforts to make the campus more diverse, some questioned whether the Greek system represents the overall diversity of the student body. Older fraternities have historically dealt with discrimination toward minorities, but as the campus continually changes, many came to the program wondering whether the Greek system is changing as well. Chi Gam member Adam Shpeen '07 initiated the program with the help of Kappa Kappa Gamma sorority member Lauren Edgar '07 to open a dialogue about minorities in the Greek system.
