Welcome Back Step Show
This is a mini-exhibition step show that takes place on the
Monday before school starts. Fall quarter, at the amphitheater.
This event gives organizations and sororities an opportunity to
represent themselves, and showcase their stepping talents. This
exciting social event allows a lot of freshmen, and other class
ranks an opportunity to meet and greet different organizations,
and make new friends.
Open- Mic Night
The Open-Mic Night takes place the first day of school
(Wednesday of fall quarter) at the Frank W. Hale Black Cultural
Center. At this event you’ll hear some poetry, singing, see some
dancing, and other types of entertaining performances. Food is
provided during intermission.
Mid-Night Breakfast
This is one of our biggest events each quarter. This is the
time to come enjoy a delicious breakfast meal prepared by the
Iotas. The food is free, and open to everyone. It starts at
12:00 Midnight, on the Saturday before finals week, and last
until 3:00 a.m. This event takes place at The Frank W. Hale
Black Cultural Center.
M.L.K. March
The Men of Iota Phi Theta Fraternity Incorporated started a
march from the Frank W. Hale Black Cultural Center, that ends
Downtown. This event takes place on the early afternoon on M.L.K.
Holiday. This march is a great legacy, and will continue to grow
bigger and bigger every year. We want students, as well as the
Columbus Community, to look at this holiday as "A Day On, Not A
Day Off." The Dream is Still Alive.
Haunted House Trip
Before Halloween we provide free transportation to a haunted
house in Columbus. Buses or vans usually leave from the Frank W.
Hale Black Cultural Center. We pay for the buses, but you must
pay for your admission ticket.
Swim Party
During spring quarter, before the Heritage Festival, we
throw a swim party at Larkin’s Hall, or the Columbus Swim
Center. This event is always fun, because it’s something
different and is inexpensive.
Clothing Drive
We pick one month out of the school year to collect
clothing; at the end of the month, we donate the clothing to a
local homeless shelter.
Adopt-A-Family for Thanksgiving and Christmas
During the months of November, we collect canned goods, and
other perishable items which are used to make Thanksgiving
baskets. We also give several turkeys to needy families in
Columbus, Ohio. In December we provide Christmas dinners as well
as gifts to needy families in Columbus, Ohio.
Resume/Interview Workshop
This workshop is broken up into 2 sections. The first
section focuses on the good and bad ways to formulate a
professional resume. You can actually bring your resume to the
workshop to make necessary corrections before you leave. The
purpose of the workshop is to help students put together a
resume that will make themselves more marketable in the job
field.
The interview workshop is developed to give students
professional advice on how to conduct a successful interview.
Sometimes we need to know what to say, what clothing is
appropriate, and other professional skills that might help us
get the job over the next man, or woman.
Final Friday
This is an end of the quarter party that is held the last
Friday of regularly scheduled classes. This event is usually
held at The Ohio Union Ballrooms, but may be held at other local
venues close to campus. |
