However, black greek members say they would like to see their appeal extend to all USC students. "I hope all students come out to the stepshow April 19," said Martina Adams, graduate adviser of the Pan-Hellenic Council, A which coordinates events for black greek sororities. The stepshow will be 7 p.m. in Carolina Coliseum and will include most of the black greek organizations. Tickets arc $3, with a 50-cent discount if greek paraphernalia is worn. The brothers of Kappa Alpha Psi, Alpha Phi Alpha, Phi Beta Sigma and Omega Psi Phi, and the sisters of Alpha Kappa Alpha and Delta Sigma Thcta have been preparing the stcpshow as part of ? the 1986 Greek Week activities. "The only way to really understand a stcpshow is to go and see one," Adams said. "All groups include chants, steps and dances in their stcpshows, but each organization adds unique touches." Brenda Gordon, a psychology/sociology senior and member of a rival sorority, Delta Sigma Theta, also eniovs th<? stcpshows. A "Stcpshows arc cxciting. ^ They're fun to do, and fun to watch," she said. Good-natured rivalry between the different fraternities and sororities plays a large role in deciding what the performers chant in their stcpshows. "We talk up our sorority during the stcpshows and imitate the other people's chants." said Leslie Besscllieu, president of ^ .Alpha Kappa Alpha.
