Hays (Chair and Methodologist) Kaprea F. Johnson (Member) ABSTRACT A GROUNDED THEORY OF THE COLLEGE EXPERIENCES OF AFRICAN AMERICAN MALES IN BLACK GREEK-LETTER ORGANIZATIONS David Julius Ford, Jr. Old Dominion University, 2014 Director: Dr. Danica G. Hays Studies have shown that involvement in a student organization can improve the academic and psychosocial outcomes of African American male students (Harper, 2006b; Robertson & Mason, 2008; Williams & Justice, 2010). Further, Harper, Byars, and Jelke (2005) stated that African American fraternities and sororities (i.e., Black Greek-letter organizations [BGLOs]) are the primary venues by which African American students become involved on campus. This grounded theory study examined the relationship between membership in a BGLO and the overall college experiences of African American male college students at a Predominantly White Institution (PWI). Eleven themes were identified in the study indicating that membership had a positive impact on the college experiences of African American male college students at a PWI. The study also examined the perceptions of counselors and other college student personnel regarding their role in improving the academic and psychosocial outcomes of African American male college students. Participants indicated that their role is to provide academic and psychosocial support for these students; they offered strategies for PWIs to improve the persistence and success of these students. Implications for counseling, higher education, and Black Greek life are provided. ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS To My Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ:Without You, I am nothing. With You, I can do all things.

Lifting As They Climb: Race, Sorority, and African American Uplift in the 20th Century Gregory S. Parks* and Caryn Neumann** INTRODUCTION In the July 2015 issue of Essence magazine, Donna Owens wrote an intriguing piece on black sororities within the Black Lives Matter Movement. Owens addressed the complicated and somewhat standoffish position of four major black sororities-Alpha Kappa Alpha, Delta Sigma Theta, Zeta Phi Beta, and Sigma Gamma Rho-in light of the deaths of Michael Brown and Eric Garner. Among them, only Zeta Phi Beta had taken an unwavering stance from the outset to allow their members to wear sorority letters while participating in protests.3 This narrative probably would seem insignificant, except for the following: First, black sororities have a unique structure.
