Kappa Alpha Psi Fraternity, Inc. will host their second annual Greekdom step show tonight at 7:11 p.m. in the Union Ballroom.
Tickets for the event are $10 at the door, which will open at 6:30 p.m. A percentage of proceeds will be donated to the organization’s national foundation Guide Right.
The Guide Right Program encourages and supports gentlemen in low income and high crime areas and leads them on the path to success.
Performances for Greekdom will feature Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity Inc., Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority Inc., Phi Beta Sigma Fraternity Inc. and Zeta Phi Beta Sorority Inc.
Members of these organizations will battle in rounds of stepping and strolling to win a grand prize of $1000 to their respective organization.
President of Kappa Alpha Psi Fraternity, Inc., Jeremiah Wiggins, hopes that this year’s event will top the previous year as well as show that VSU Greek life is still a prominent force on campus.
“Anyone who attends Greekdom can expect fast paced, thrilling competition,” Wiggins said. “At a step show, the performers are on a stage; however at Greekdom the performers are much closer and connected with the crowd making any member of the audience feel as if they are a part of the show.”
Kappa Alpha Phi originally brought Greekdom to students in efforts to introduce new events and trends to the University. Wiggins stated that this step show will be different from any other step show.
“There are three themed rounds where the participants step and stroll within a certain time bracket, back to back,” Wiggins said.
