Members of Zeta Phi
Beta Sorority, Inc. - Phi Omicron Zeta chapter hosted an Anti-Hazing Rally at
Newton High School in Covington, Georgia on April 17, 2015. A PowerPoint presentation was developed from
the Phi Beta Sigma Fraternity, Inc. Anti-Hazing material. The PowerPoint was presented to the six
hundred member senior class by Soror Dorothy Moss and Soror Conneva Hall. Key information was shared with students about
hazing and how to empower themselves when put in a situation that involves
hazing. Students were also reminded that hazing is not limited to sororities
and fraternities, but also takes place in the military and marching bands. In addition to the PowerPoint presentation, the
Rally included a Divine Nine Forum where Zetas, Sigmas and Deltas shared
information on the negative impacts of hazing.
Each student that attended the Rally was also given an Anti-Hazing quiz
to reinforce the learning and a pen/stylus with a “No Hazing Zone” logo
imprinted in blue. The principal of
Newton High School, Mr. John Ellenberg, thanked Phi Omicron Zeta for sponsoring
the Rally and shared his commitment to the school’s partnership with the
chapter. A reporter, Ryan McKenzie, from
the Newton Citizen Newspaper covered this event.
