The Next Chapter: Diversity Q&A By: Darlene Antoine | Features Editor

FAU Greek Chapters condemn racism and celebrate inclusivity both on and off-campus. Activists permeated the summer of 2020 with protests, social justice efforts, trending hashtags, and campaigns to end police brutality. FAU Greek chapter leaders heard the outcry of rallying students who marched along campus halls and highways to demand change at FAU and across the nation. After reaching out to all 12 sororities and 15 fraternities, only four chose to comment.

The University Press asked chapter representatives from these four fraternities and sororities about how they are working to pave the way for social changes in their chapters.
