Whether you’re reaching out for support, collaborating on campus events, or simply celebrating what it means to belong, our shared goal is always to be “TOGETHER IN PURPOSE. TOGETHER ON PURPOSE.”

NATIONAL PAN-HELLENIC COUNCIL

The National Pan-Hellenic Council (NPHC), warmly known as the Divine Nine, unites nine historically Black Greek-letter organizations with a shared mission of service, unity, and cultural empowerment. Founded during a time of segregation and limited access to higher education, the NPHC was created to foster cooperation, amplify the impact of Black fraternities and sororities, and champion advancement for Black communities. Membership opens the door to meaningful opportunities, such as scholarship, leadership, and networking, while nurturing lifelong bonds and preserving rich cultural heritage. Guided by principles of service, scholarship, and social justice, NPHC members have made lasting contributions in civic engagement, public health, and economic empowerment, while uplifting their communities and inspiring future generations.

INTERFRATERNITY COUNCIL

The Interfraternity Council (IFC) serves as the guiding organization for fraternities affiliated with the North American Interfraternity Conference (NIC), fostering a spirit of brotherhood, leadership, and service on campus. Southern Miss IFC encourages members to embrace values such as empathy, ambition, and excellence and to demonstrate them through academic achievement, philanthropy, and personal growth. Each fraternity not only builds lifelong friendships but also supports national charitable causes, ranging from children’s health to veterans’ services. Together, IFC chapters collaborate on service projects and events that strengthen their bonds, give back to the community, and create a lasting, positive impact at Southern Miss.
