In 1983, the Buffalonian yearbook reported, "Fraternities on this campus play a much more low-key role than they do at other institutions -- which is not to say that they're insignificant."
The 1980s brought with them a proliferation of ethnic and cultural Greek organization which continued into the 1990s. UB's African-American Greek organizations, like Alpha Kappa Alpha, Delta Sigma Theta, continued to grow. Lambda Phi Delta, the first Latina sorority, was founded in 1988. Asian groups Delta Gamma Tau, Phi Iota Alpha, and Alpha Kappa Delta Phi were charted in 1990, 1995, and 1997 respectively.
