"Bring your siblings to the events this weekend. If you don't have any or can't bring them, come and have fun anyways!" said Shardaya Gregory, president of Successful Black Women Organization and member of Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority Inc., Delta Zeta chapter. Lil' Sibs Weekend at Michigan State University is a campus wide event that includes parties, lazer tag, snacks and more with students and their younger siblings. Three African American organizations, Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority Inc., Delta Zeta chapter, African American Student Mentor Program and Successful Black Women, have come together to promote college enrollment amongst their siblings and the community. Allowing students to display their achievements and continue to be role models for younger age groups in order to potentially increase college enrollment. The weekend is a time to bond with younger siblings, give them a feel for college life and their daily routine, while encouraging them to maintain an interest in their academic studies and aspirations.
