Phi Beta Sigma - Nu Gamma Chapter
Phi Beta Sigma Fraternity was founded at Howard University in Washington, D.C., January 9, 1914, by three young African-American male students. For over three decades the Nu Gamma Chapter at Grand Valley has been striving to uphold the principals of Brotherhood, Scholarship, and Service and will continue to do so on into the future. Currently, there are two active brothers on campus, and every day they strive to take Sigma to the next level. I send thanks to my brothers for continuing a tradition of excellence. GOMAB!
