While more than 60 percent of American high schoolers go on to college, only 17 percent of American Indian students do. Those who do enroll often have a tough time coping with a lack of connectiveness and social isolation. That's why 25 years ago, a group of young native women decided to claim their space in one of the most traditional social organizations in higher education - Greek life. Alpha Pi Omega is the first sorority for Native American women.
Guests:
Christina Theodorou - Tribal Liaison with Maximus and one of the founders of Alpha Pi Omega.
Elizabeth Alexander - Student at Oklahoma State University and the president of the OSU chapter of Alpha Pi Omega.
