Students Create New Sorority Focused on BIPOC Community

Three students created a new sorority focused on Black, Indigenous, and People Of Color (BIPOC) at Knox College. Madison Sparks says the idea developed from conversations involving about a half-dozen Knox students. All of them are first-generation college students, and all are BIPOC. The group decided that by founding a new Black-centered sorority at Knox, they could do more to promote Black culture and connection. The sorority plans to engage in different forms of outreach, both on and off-campus, and expects to develop relationships with other organizations, such as Allied Blacks for Liberty & Equality (A.B.L.E.), the Knox Black Alumni Network (BAN), and the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP).
