Jackson State University hosted the 2015 \u201cLet The Good Times Roar\u201d Homecoming Greek Show on Oct. 23 in the Lee E. Williams Athletic and Assembly Center.<\/p>\n

The step show featured seven of the nine National Pan-Hellenic Council (NPHC) organizations performing various skits, including: Zeta Phi Beta Sorority, Inc., Sigma Gamma Rho Sorority, Inc., Phi Beta Sigma Fraternity, Inc., Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity, Inc., Kappa Alpha Psi Fraternity, Inc., Omega Psi Phi Fraternity, Inc., and Iota Phi Theta Fraternity, Inc.<\/p>\n

Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity, Inc. won first place at the Greek Show with runner-up in second place Zeta Phi Beta Sorority, Inc. and Phi Beta Sigma Fraternity, Inc. receiving third place.<\/p>\n

Students had varying thoughts on the step show.<\/p>\n

\u201cHonestly the step show was a little more creative than last year. I feel like the Alphas were the most creative this time around and the Sigma\u2019s presentation was the dopiest to me,\u201d said Ky\u2019Bria Spell, a junior industrial technology major from Atlanta, Ga.<\/p>\n

The Upsilon Epsilon (YE) chapter of Omega Psi Phi Fraternity, Inc. theme was based on a block party they were anxious to get too but first they had too handle business by showing the crowd what they wanted to do. The Ques were promoting the block party they were hosting after the step show was completed. From the neck rolls and hopping all over the stage, the Ques showed the crowd how they get down.<\/p>\n

The Alpha Beta chapter of Phi Beta Sigma Fraternity, Inc. theme was based on the 90\u2019s Blu TV with performances from \u201cIn Living Color\u201d, \u201cFresh Prince\u201d, \u201cMartin\u201d, \u201cWayans Brothers\u201d and \u201cKenan and Kel\u201d.\u00a0 The throwback 90\u2019s theme had the crowd hype and singing along to the theme songs to the shows.<\/p>\n

The Delta Delta chapter of Kappa Alpha Psi Fraternity, Inc. theme was about a young boy entering his freshman year of college while his grandfather tells stories from 1951. The Kappa\u2019s honored some ladies with red roses during their performance. The way the Kappa\u2019s were moving during their performance had the ladies screaming in excitement.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe step show was well organized this year and rearranging of the stage made seating more available to fans and students. There were slight problems with the sound system but that\u2019s user error,\u201d said Joseph Thomas, a junior political science major and member of Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity, Inc. from New Orleans, La.<\/p>\n

The Lambda Beta chapter of Zeta Phi Beta Sorority, Inc. theme was based on the \u201cThe Wizard of Oz.\u201d The ladies had to follow the royal blue road in order to get back home they had to stay true to themselves, serve others, and have confidence in themselves. On their journey they had to get rid of the three evil wicked witches. While following the royal blue road they ran into a scarecrow that needed a brain, a lion that needed confidence in herself and a tin woman who needed a heart. After defeating the three wicked witches; the scarecrow, the lion, and the tin woman received scholarship, sisterhood, and womanhood. The ladies stayed true to themselves and were able to go home.<\/p>\n

The Delta Psi chapter of Iota Phi Theta Fraternity, Inc. theme was about three men going to a job interview for a dream job. The boss was looking for the perpetuation of brotherhood, scholarship, leadership, citizenship and fidelity of all mankind. All three men were hired after they showed they could work together as one and a ghetto secretary was fired.<\/p>\n

The Alpha Tau chapter of Sigma Gamma Rho Sorority, Inc. theme was based on the movie \u201cSet It Off.\u201d They took the big risk so that they could get the 22. They wanted to get that money. The ladies robbed a small bank with no problem but this time they wanted to rob the biggest bank in the city. Their lives depended on getting for scholarships. They were successful as they strolled off the stage.<\/p>\n

The Delta Phi chapter of Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity, Inc. theme was based of the movie \u201cThe Purge.\u201d The guys wore masks to cover their face and threw them down with force when they began to spit their history. The crowd went crazy with cheers when they threw their masks off and began stepping. They also included a clip mimicking the other fraternities which gave the crowd a good laugh but not the fraternities. Every step was on point with the other and they even included a snake ripple effect.<\/p>\n

All the fraternities and sororities who participated in the Greek Step show were honored with a plaque for participation.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe Alphas did good. It was unexpected because I\u2019m use to the blue and white taking over but I\u2019m glad us Zetas and brothers (Sigmas) were still in the top three,\u201d D\u2019Andrea Eashmond a senior criminal justice major and member of Zeta Phi Beta Sorority, Inc. from Hattiesburg, Miss.<\/p>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
