Description An account of the resource This Collegian article sheds light on the Richmond gay bar Godfrey’s as a source of refuge for LGBTQ+ students who attend the University of Richmond and wish for an alternative to Greek affiliated events. Common Ground director Glyn Hughes explains that Greek life on campus is heteronormative, meaning that it assumes everyone in the community is heterosexual. Although Greek leaders disagree that fraternities and sororities add to the homophobic atmosphere of University of Richmond’s campus, gay 2008 graduate Jason Tseng, along with other LGBTQ+ students, claim that the University is a, “…hostile climate for queer people.” This hostility can be attributed in part to gender segregated housing and the coordinate college system in general, says Tseng. Despite administrative efforts to promote campus inclusivity by Strategic Plan, Hughs notes that change in campus culture must come from students as well. In terms of promoting LGBTQ+ visibility on campus, Andy Gurka, area coordinator for the University Forest Apartments, discusses his experience as gay on campus and concludes that “being out has been a benefit to the community."

Conway traces the history of Black Greek organizations to the early 20th century, and stresses the need for more research on and awareness about the history of these organizations. He exclaims that the importance of Black fraternities and sororities moving to white campuses is often overlooked, and that the fundamental rituals of these organizations became, “violated, objects of attack and objects of abuse.” Conway also explained the delicate situation that once Black Greek life comes to a campus, it only takes one organization’s expulsion for the campus to get rid of all Black Greek life. In conclusion, Conway also discussed the five primary vectors of Black Greek organizations: symbolism, human resource development, service, operation management, and socialization (placing emphasis on service).

In her published special investigation “Citadels of Snobbery,” Frank warns that in screening applicants on the basis of income, religion and social position, fraternities and sororities promote, “a ‘completely un-American, undemocratic caste system.’” She reports that Greek organizations practice religious discrimination by setting quotas for Catholic students and banning Jewish students, therefore creating segregation on campuses.

Description An account of the resource This article covers the first-ever sorority rush that took place at the University of Richmond. Alison Bartel, assistant director of student affairs, organized and led all of the activities throughout this busy week and created a program that included an orientation, sorority “parties”, and sorority meetings. The orientation at the start of the week introduced the process of Rush to the rushees and provided detailed directions to the women involved. Open house meetings introduced each rushee to each of the six sororities and gave everyone their first impressions of the program. Sorority parties were attended by invitation only and allowed for sororities to get to know the rushees on a more intimate level. Throughout the week, a lot of rushees voiced their opinions on the Rush process, going so far as to saying, “I had the best interview, I stayed 20 minutes longer than I was supposed to,” compared to, “I can't stand this, I feel like just quitting.” The process of choosing a final sorority all came down to the individual’s preference along with the sorority’s choice of members.

This committee will determine which 6 sororities are best suited for the Westhampton women on campus. Factors such as “financial aid programs, alcohol policy and the number of alumnae available in the area to advise,” are all considered when reviewing the presentations of the sororities. A questionnaire was also sent out asking women to state their opinions on the necessity of bringing historically black sororities to campus. The sororities will not be granted individual houses like the fraternities but will instead meet in the Emily Gardener Room for meetings.

Description An account of the resource In this oral history interview, Kevin Jones (‘94) sat down with Cole Richard (’21) and Jisu Song (‘22) on June 18, 2019, in Boatwright Memorial Library. Over the course of the one hour interview, Jones discussed his experience as one of the only black students in the business school, as well as his participation in three student groups: Minority Student Union, Asian American Student Association, and Volunteer Action Council. Jones reflects on his active search for diversity while on campus, including his time living in the International House, a dorm for study abroad and four-year international students. <img src="https://memory.richmond.edu/files/misc/JonesKevin_1991-01.JPG" alt="" /><img src="https://memory.richmond.edu/files/misc/JonesKevin_1992-01.JPG" alt="" /><img src="https://memory.richmond.edu/files/misc/JonesKevin_1993-01.JPG" alt="" /><img src="https://memory.richmond.edu/files/misc/JonesKevin_1994-01.JPG" alt="" /> Beyond the social barriers of race, religion, gender, and geography, Kevin LaMarr Jones professes that dance and music have the ability to unite the world.

Jones studied traditional West African dance with Sister Faye Walker and Judy Lynn Edwards. He discovered a passion for flamenco through teachers like with Ana Ines King, Anna Menendez and Antonio Hidalgo Paz as well as many other master flamenco teachers during his travels to New York, Washington DC, Jerez de la Frontera, Madrid and Seville. He has studied Afro-Cuban dances with Ifé Michelle Milligan, Alberto Limonta Perez and various other master teachers in workshops between Miami, New York and Barcelona.

Description An account of the resource Despite being named No. 3 school in the nation for “best quality of life” in the Princeton Review, minority students at the University of Richmond disagree. Only 12% of the university’s undergraduates identify as African-American, Native American, Hispanic/Latino, Asian or biracial. From the black community on campus, “approximately 40%... receive the University’s CIGNA Scholarship." Many student statements appear in the article that voice veiled frustration with the university’s lack of diversity, which is followed by an example in which a student transfers to a different institution. The lack of support from the university for minority students is glossed over by the university’s statement that "...students express negative feelings their first year because of the tremendous amount of growing they go through.” Although there are many obstacles in the way of students of color, organizations such as the Multicultural Student Union (MSU), International Student Union, Umoja Gospel Choir, Ngoma African Company and many other multicultural groups provide safe spaces for those in need.

There was particular emphasis on the traditions within these black fraternities and sororities that were regarded as “hazing” by the white communities at white institutions. The discrepancies within hazing when comparing white greek organizations to black greek organizations were highlighted as students from Alpha Kappa Alpha and Delta Sigma Theta sorority’s continued discussing similar matters after the speech.

The writer acknowledges the work of co-ed service fraternities but criticizes the model of Greek organizations in general as they lead to “international students… segregating themselves from the rest of campus.” The writer concludes with a wake-up call for students to realize there’s life outside of their individual greek organizations and encourages them to become diverse within their social lives.
