Iota Phi Theta® Fraternity Incorporated
FAR WEST REGION SWEETHEARTS
“OW Sweet” Remarkable, Simply Remarkable
Iota Phi Theta Sweethearts are a recognized, respected and honored tradition of the
Fraternity and have a long history of affiliation with Iota. This history harkens
back to the days of our Founding and the circumstances of the day.
In the early 1960's at Morgan State University, Iota Phi Theta was blessed to have
an invaluable ally in the person of Ms. Audrey Brooks. Ms. Brooks was a member of
the Morgan State University staff and in this capacity, she played a crucial "behind
the scenes" role for the Fraternity. In many instances, her actions and influence
prevented the fledgling organization from being victimized by those who would have
seen Iota fail.
The spirit and dedication of Ms. Brooks lives today through the Iota Phi Theta Sweetheart Organization and with good reason. As Iota Phi Theta navigated the rocky waters of our early years, the Brotherhood could always count on the support of our Sweetheart organization. Be it serving as hostesses for a national meeting or as a support team at a stepshow, our Hearts have always been there ... on the front lines ... providing vocal and moral support for the Brothers of Iota. Today, Iota Sweethearts (many of whom are wives of Iota Men) continue to support the organization in a major way.
The Far West Region has some of the most remarkable women serving as Iota Sweetheart. Like many of the sweethearts across the country, Iota Sweethearts are educated, well rounded women, who give generously of their time to help uplift the name of Iota Phi Theta®.
The Far West Region is proud to have the support of the Iota Sweethearts across the Region!
