JACKSON, Miss. (WLBT) - Students at Jackson State University were greeted with a welcome site Friday – truckloads of bottled water brought in by Mississippi State University.
Students on the West Jackson campus have been without water for weeks, as the city works to restore service following the February winter storms.
As of Friday, about 1,200 student residents were still without water, according to a news release.
The University of Georgiaâs Multicultural Greek Council and National Pan-Hellenic Council met in a virtual panel on March 5 to answer the question: âDo Greeks of color think the same?â
The MGC is an umbrella organization for multicultural fraternities and sororities nationally and at UGA. The NPHC is another umbrella council made up of several historically African American Greek life organizations, seven of which have chapters at UGA.
Representatives from the two councils came together in an event to find a âmiddle groundâ by discussing similarities between the organizations, the question of race, Greek lifeâs role in the COVID-19 pandemic and more. The conversation was moderated by the MGC president, Donna Chong and the NPHC president, Christiny Reeves.
