Summary
# BLACK GREEK LIFE IN HIGHER EDUCATION
*THE DIVINE NINE: ORGANIZATIONAL HISTORIES, SYMBOLISM, AND LEGACY*
**A Selection from Degree I: Black Greek Life in Higher Education**
**By Dr. Cory J. Mickens**
**Narrated by Benjamin**
**DESK Publishing Audiobook**
Discover the extraordinary history, traditions, symbolism, and enduring influence of America's nine historically Black fraternities and sororities.
In this compelling audiobook, Dr. Cory J. Mickens explores the founding, development, achievements, and cultural significance of the organizations that comprise the National Pan-Hellenic Council, collectively known as the Divine Nine.
Beginning with the establishment of Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity, Inc., in 1906 and concluding with Iota Phi Theta Fraternity, Inc., founded in 1963, this historical exploration examines more than a century of Black Greek-letter life.
Listeners will discover the historical circumstances surrounding each organization's founding, the contributions of distinguished members, the importance of brotherhood and sisterhood, and the role these institutions have played in advancing education, leadership, civil rights, and community service.
Drawing upon history and positive psychology, Dr. Mickens connects the Divine Nine's enduring traditions with perseverance, resilience, personal transformation, institutional excellence, and collective achievement.
Adapted from *Degree I: Black Greek Life in Higher Education*, this audiobook offers an accessible introduction to the organizations, people, and principles that helped shape generations of Black leadership.
Ideal for students, educators, historians, fraternity and sorority members, alumni, and anyone interested in African American history, higher education, and the continuing legacy of Black Greek-letter organizations.
