The National Pan-Hellenic Council (NPHC) will host its fifth annual Homecoming Step Show at 7 p.m. Friday at the Tad Smith Coliseum.

The step show is a competition where NPHC organizations step for cash prizes, according to NPHC Vice President of Programming and Sigma Gamma Rho sorority chapter President Jasmine Powell.

This is my first year being a part of the planning committee, and I’m excited about it,” Powell, a senior English major, said.

According to Powell, the event is open to the public and “anyone who wants to get a glimpse into the culture of NPHC organizations.”

“Participants in the step show pick themes to center their show around (e.g., boxing, baseball, certain movies or TV shows, etc.),” said Shuterrica White, the president of Tau Eta Chapter of Zeta Phi Beta sorority.

The show is an opportunity for NPHC organizations to showcase their talents, including stepping and also strolls and chants, according to White.

Participating in this year’s event are Alpha Kappa Alpha, Delta Sigma Theta, Zeta Phi Beta and Sigma Gamma Rho sororities and Omega Psi Phi, Kappa Alpha Psi and Phi Beta Sigma fraternities.
