The Rho Nu Chapter deliberately meets the needs of our community through active and impactful engagement.
Black Arts Brunch is an annual program focused on the promotion and celebration of artistic expression in the Black community.
Black Arts Brunch was started in 2019, and is hosted in collaboration with the Xi Tau Chapter of Delta Sigma Theta Sorority, Inc. The event includes performances from community members, a catered brunch service, local small business promotion, and a space that fosters fellowship and love.

Rho Nu Runs was an initiative started in the Spring of 2021. During a time of intense social distancing and reduced social connection, Rho Nu Runs was intended to serve as a community-building event centered on physical wellness and service.
Rho Nu Runs takes up a different service cause every year. Past series have included March of Dimes and Community Health.

The Rho Nu Book Club began as an extension of community-building efforts at the beginning of COVID-19, bringing people together through collective intellectual exploration. Through partnership with a local Black-owned bookstore (The Million Year Picnic), the Rho Nu Book Club supports Black business while enriching our community.
The program has evolved to include collaborations with other student organizations.
