Well on my yard for sororities right now it is a tie between the AKAs and the Deltas. Since we crossed in the fall of 03 we held it down in the spring. However, the Deltas, Zetas and SGRhos all crossed a line in the spring so right now I can't really call it. I will have to wait until the fall to see who actually holds it down but I will say that right now AKA is holding it down. We won the step show last spring, many of my line sisters hold SGA positions and my front is on the royal court. As far as fraternities I can't really call it right now. Everyone, except the Iotas, had a line last spring but it was the end of the semester so we will have to wait to the fall to see who holds it down. Last year the Alphas (the Omegas were a close second though) were the only ones holding down SGA positions. But I can't wait until next semester because all of the Greeks are back on the yard and it will be interesting to see how everything goes down. I am too excited.

i guess the definition of " running the yard" differs in the south then it does on the west coast..I guess u jave to win all the stepshows, be the most seen on campus, and have the most amount om members in order to " run the yard" * shrugs* i guess you can throw the idea of actually doing work on campus, holding positions, putting on events, and doing community service out the window huh... :?

This is so true. Now and days people only go by what they SEE and not by who is doing the most WORK...but hey, what are you gonna do :?

naw i just havent seen any on the yard. the ques be out there like all day. i dont seem the alphas on the yard at all. so if u do see them u must be blind
ok point of clarification..." running the yard" does not constitute how many members you have on campus, how many yard shows u set out, how much your seen walkin around...Running the yard, is putting on events on campus, having your orgs name in the mouths of high officials on a daily basis, how much community service u do..u say you dont see my frat on campus??? maybe there in class or in the library, or at work...we Men Of Alpha Have better theings to do then just chill on campus...I know Here At My School In Cali We have All-Greeks( white, black, mexican, deaf, ect) and for the past 2 years my chapter has won " Outstanding Greek Org. in the community, and on Campus" and that is outta all the greeks..we have members on the E-board of Associated Students, Black Student Union, Black Business Association, and my spr 04 neo is the new President of the NPHC for the upcoming year...so no we are not " seen" on campus that often, but please believe we run this muthafucca, and if u mention the Name of Alpha, people know who we be

The Sigma's run Howards yard
Hmm... I wouldnt necessarily say all that. The Sigmas represent. However, the Ques are on the yard every friday rain or shine and they are super crunk. As far as the ladies, I would have to give it to the Deltas cause they are deep as hell and they put on many quality programs. The AKAs havent had a line since 2001 so that explains that. The SGRhos just crossed 3.... everyone is representing nicely, but the Ques and the Deltas are holding it down at the HU right now.
didnt know u had to be deep to run it

Have yall ever thought about which fraternity is serving the most people instead or in addition to "running" the yard?
:idea: From what i heard, we were supposed to win the sorority of the yeat award but some things happened We are not deep nor do we strut at every part but on the business aspect, we definitely hold it down and thats due to our advisor mainly

Yes phrat, things are defintely different down south as compared to the West Coast. Being a WEST COAST chica myself and a student at an HBCU in the south, I can definitely see the differences in Greek life. "Runnin it" down south means those who are "seen" the most, those who have real deep lines :roll: and those who win all the step shows/have the best party hops. WE are 'runnin' my yard right now and I can say this with all honesty because NO ONE does more community service work/campus social activities than we do. When people say "them AKAs at BC is runnin thangs" the first thing they compliment us on is not our step show wins nor our off tha chain party hops, it's the amount of SERVICE we do :wink: and how we carry ourselves that gets the respect PHIRST 8) .
