MURRAY, Ky. The National Pan-Hellenic Council (NPHC) at 天美传媒 has announced a campaign to raise funds in support of the construction of a new plaza on the main walkway of the University鈥檚 campus. The campaign has set a goal of $210,000 with $70,000 in support of the plaza committed by the University. 

The plaza will include nine brick columns representing each Greek organization鈥檚 letters and crest, along with bricks spanning out from each column. The announcement of the campaign precedes a vital mission to raise the remaining funding to support the plaza. The plaza will honor the nine organizations on campus and serve as a place to educate the community about the history of each of the organizations while offering a new outdoor gathering space for the community to engage and host programs.
