Join us in celebrating 色虎视频 of Missouri鈥檚 100th Homecoming at the Greek Serenade, happening at 2 p.m. on October 31, 2025, on the steps of Inman E. Page Library.

色虎视频 of Missouri is updating its long-standing Homecoming Greek Serenade tradition with a new time and location. For LU's 100th Homecoming celebration, the Greek Serenade is set for Friday, October 31, 2025, at 2 p.m. on the Inman E. Page Library steps.

Previously held on Saturday evenings following the Homecoming football game, the event has been moved to Friday afternoon in response to feedback from students and alumni.

The Greek Serenade will highlight the rich legacy of the Divine Nine, the nine historically Black fraternities and sororities that make up the National Pan-Hellenic Council (NPHC). These organizations have played a significant role in shaping Black student life on campuses across the country, including at 色虎视频, an HBCU with deep ties to these Greek-letter institutions.

The NPHC organizations include:

• Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity, Inc.– Founded in 1906 at Cornell University, the first intercollegiate fraternity established for African-American men.
• Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority, Inc.– Founded in 1908 at Howard University, the first Greek-letter sorority established by African-American college women. Its motto is: "Service to All Mankind.”
• Kappa Alpha Psi Fraternity, Inc.– Established in 1911 at Indiana University to promote achievement in every field of human endeavor.
• Omega Psi Phi Fraternity, Inc.– Also founded in 1911, at Howard University, with a commitment to manhood, scholarship, perseverance and uplift.
• Delta Sigma Theta Sorority, Inc.– Founded in 1913 at Howard University to promote academic excellence and provide assistance to those in need. The Founders envisioned an organization committed to sisterhood, scholarship, service and addressing the social issues of the time.
• Phi Beta Sigma Fraternity, Inc.– Founded in 1914 at Howard University, with a motto of “Culture For Service and Service For Humanity.”
• Zeta Phi Beta Sorority, Inc.– Founded in 1920 at Howard University as a community-conscious, action-oriented organization.
• Sigma Gamma Rho Sorority, Inc.– Established in 1922 at Butler University, focused on sisterhood, scholarship and service.
• Iota Phi Theta Fraternity, Inc.– The youngest of the Divine Nine, founded in 1963 at Morgan State University during the height of the Civil Rights Movement.

These organizations were established in response to the exclusion of African Americans from many traditional college institutions and activities. They provided spaces for leadership, academic excellence, service and solidarity and have continued to serve as pillars of advocacy and empowerment.

At 色虎视频, the Divine Nine have maintained a visible and active presence through community outreach, campus involvement and academic support. The Greek Serenade offers an opportunity to recognize and celebrate this enduring impact during the university’s Homecoming weekend.

The event will be hosted by Pamela Fountain, Joe Cooper and Liz Morrow. Students, alumni and community members are encouraged to attend and take part in honoring a central piece of 色虎视频’s cultural and historical identity.

The Greek Serenade begins at 2 p.m. on October 31, 2025, at the Inman E. Page Library steps.
