At Belmont University, the future of one of its eight nationally recognized Greek life organizations rests in the hands of just one member. Phi Beta Sigma Fraternity, Inc., which falls under the National Pan-Hellenic Council umbrella, otherwise known as the Divine Nine, is a historically Black fraternity founded at Howard University in 1914. There are over 200,000 lifetime members across the nation, but Belmont’s Gamma Alpha Eta chapter has just one on campus: Muhammad Picket

What is the Divine 9? What does it mean? When did it start? How can I be a member? These questions and many more will be answered at the NPHC (National Pan Hellenic-Council) informational session about African-American fraternities and sororities on campus Wednesday, Nov. 17. The location is still to be determined, but dress warm or at least have a jacket because the session begins at 10:00 p.m. and will end when all questions are answered.
