UGA recognizes historically Black fraternities, sororities

– Today a significant. It’s historic. This permanent site, recognizing each of what I’ve always called the Divine Nine, say that we are an integral part of the University of Georgia, and that we belong here, that our voice is heard here, and that we are seen here at the university.

– I am delighted to see so many alumni and friends and supporters with us today for this historic occasion, including charter members of each and every organization. – We have always been here. We have always been here and we have always been a vital part of this community and it’s great to be recognized once again, particularly in this great way. While this has indeed been a long time coming, I am exceptionally happy and proud that we have arrived.

– I believe that we can say, for the members of those nine organizations here today, that we feel heard and we feel seen. We are proud to be a part of the University of Georgia and the great Bulldog Nation.
