The Greek-Independents Dance
for muscular dystrophy at Lakeview
tonight isn’t an ordinary country and
western dance. It’s a challenge to
the Greeks (members of sororities
and fraternities) and non-Greeks
(independents) to see how much
money they can raise together for
muscular dystrophy, coordinator
Sharon Kuhn said.
The dance is from 8 p.m. to mid
night.
Kuhn, a member of Kappa Kappa
Gamma sorority at Texas A&M Uni
versity, said the idea of the dance
was to bring all types of students to
gether.
“I get tired of the stereotype that
all Greeks do is party, so this way
we can incorporate the indepen
dents to party with us for a charity
cause,” Kuhn said.
The dance is sponsored by Kappa
Kappa Gamma sorority and Kappa
Alpha fraternity. The admission is $1
per person.
“A lot of thought went into which
charity organization to donate the
proceeds to,” Kuhn said. “Muscular
dystrophy was chosen based on the
fact that 83 percent of the donations
they receive are used for actual
medical treatment of the disease
and for establishing new research
centers around the country.”
Kuhn said if 1,000 people come to
the dance, Texas A&M will be able
to send someone to the Jerry Lewis
Telethon next year.
