Question -- should not the term be just BGLO or AAGLO instead of HBGLO? A main purpose is to uplift the African-American community. Even on the NPHC web site, the term "African-American Greek Letter Organizations" is used more often than not.

Founding to help preserve or uplift a culture/community is very special and those who join such organization do so because of those principles. Similarly, many of the Latino organization are specifically for uplifting the Latino community or culture.

This is very different than the general social fraternity/sorority or the multi-cultural fraternity/sororitiy, which are perhaps more alike even though they may use different recruitment technique.

This type of attitude is why I don't frequent greekchat much anymore.

Re: Re: What are you saying?
 

Uh no! You know that everyone on here does not think like that.

Re: Re: What are you saying?
 

As far as Hoosier's attitude, what is it you don't agree with? Freedom of speech is something that is a very important freedom in this country.

If you start to decide that certain things are not legal to say, who gets to decide this?

While I certainly do NOT agree with this group's choice of attire... It is my choice not to agree with them... as it is yours. At least in the US we are given the opportunity to hear people make asses of themselves in this fashion.

The organization on the other hand DOES have the right to police itself and should have closed them down, expelled every single active in the group, etc.. The school on the other hand recieves public funding and therefore should not have this right.

According to you...


Then why are you spouting off about



since coming out like that you're being hypocritical to your comment about racist crap since you're spitting this all out. If you're so tired of it you won't say it as much. And yes, I've seen a lot of your posts. But where does insults, even when intended in a joking matter, get you? It doesn't help. It just riles people up or insults them. And do you honestly think that you're adhering to the statement that you stated below?



As it seems that you're being very derogatory in your word usage yourself.

OKAY...

Now Tom has me laughing... Sapphire Sweetie, I think you are taking a few points of Tom's to dissect without having the full content to understand...

He is one of the most open, (odd writing... sorry Tom, occassionally your posts are hard to follow), Pro-Greek people on this site.


And this has nothing to do with anything... but I wonder if the other 28% of rushees that did not get a bid during rush are being openly invited to join Melody's MGLO? ***I know only a certain few will understand... and I promise I have had no wine this afternoon...****

Re: Re: Re: What are you saying?
 

My believing in freedom of speech doesn't mean that I have to sit and listen to ignorance.

I agree, Hoosier is a F Moron!

He reports the sad state of affairs along with DetalAlum about the state of not only their Fraternitys and Soroitys but All!

Are you privy to the Greek info sheets sent out by a National Org that prints all of the events of what Greeks do to Screw up and why Schools want to control them!

I do, along with I am sure other members on this site!

Do You understand the over all state of Greek Affairs that are happening all over the Country, of the stupidity that goes on and the people who are dieing and being Abused!

We are hear to try and work with each other and hopefully pass this info along!

A little side Bar for you edification!

OK, is this turning into the "let's bash everybody, one at a time thread" here? If so, I feel left out. Is it my turn yet?

Fuzzie... you suck.

:p

Hi Tom,

I'm sorry I don't care how many black people or other minorities you chat with on a message board, I guess that was the reason you named OTW, U-Mgirl and the rest. I don't care how many "black fraternity brothers you have". Using certain words is never ever appropriate whether you think you are jesting, joking, or whatever and you may not have offended those person who you listed, but I hate to hear any person throwing the "N word" around or any other derogatory term around, you offended me.

I really don't care how you attempt to justify it, the words should never leave your your mouth, or your fingertips in this situation.

Re: Re: Re: What are you saying?
 

well, i disagree with him in saying it was stupid for the photographer to post those pics on the web. if it was all in clean fun, and they hired the photographer to publish photos on the web, the why is it stupid that he's doing his job? or is it stupid that those guys got caught? and if they really wanted to do something like that, why the hell would they want to hide something like it?

people who joke around and say things like that are also the type of people who say "we don't think about you like that" or something to the extent of "what, you can't take a joke?" if some person, came up to me, non-asian, and called me a chink, said person is going to get a beating.
