Past Programs
Women's Leadership Week
This is designed in honor of Women's History Month. The one week program
includes luncheons and lectures from invited guests that celebrate the
accomplishments of women. They also address the concerns of women on
various topics, including the workplace, family, education, self confidence
and diversity.
Black History Month Program
Members of the organization wanted to reflect on and pay tribute to
African American achievements and struggles. A showcase was organized
by the sorority, but included students from various organizations participating
in skits, poetry, singing, and reflective tributes of important selections
of Martin Luther King's, "I have a Dream" and Malcolm X speeches.
Soul Food Dinner
BTQ felt that it as important for members of the school community to
understand various aspects of African American lifestyle, including
the food. Thus, they decided to cook for the students and with Sodexho
Marriott's permission, prepared foods in the cafeteria and presented
them during dinner time. The menu consisted of some items made from
traditional African American recipes.
Fashion Show
The interactive show is put on during Homecoming Week. The audience
is able to play games and prizes are awarded accordingly, while the
models are given the freedom to interact with the crowd freely. The
categories are formal, casual, sportswear, and a complete wedding ensemble.
