It sounds like you're saying, "Well, we have our organizations and they have theirs, so let's all be happy with that."

What I'm saying is that the opportunity to even be able to stereotype/discriminate on the basis of race is hardly ever presented in the South. I'm sure that if more minorities were going through NPC/NIC Rush, more integration would happen. But there's just very few doing it in the first place, and the core of that issue is: are they happy in NPHC or multicultural orgs or are they too scared to even try? I don't know.

As was mentioned earlier in the thread, fraternities and sororities in the south display and showcase the tops of Southern society, people who have been at the top for quite some time. Way before the abolishment of slavery. Old money. That's what fraternities and sororities are in the south. For the most part, have you ever met an African-American that was old money? That is to say, rich before the 1900's? Have their parents been involved in southern white fraternities since then? I would assume they had not. This is what they lack to get into southern fraternities. It is not a question of integration, it is a question of status.

So in other words if Scarlett Johannson or Bill Gates' daughter was going through rush she wouldn't get a bid either? Because they have new money and new money is poo tinkey?

Muah right back to ya. I'm not sure if coming back on GC was good or bad. Probably both.

And for the record, I don't think I could have an orgasm in my cubicle.

They'd get a bid, just not to Old Row, lol. What a bunch of hoo hockey.

From what I can tell, most black people here are involved in some way with popular black culture. I don't know that much about the group, because it is pretty segregated here. I have some friends from class and I know some guys on the football team, and while I like them, they wouldn't fit in our fraternity, and if I honestly asked them to rush, they'd probably laugh hysterically. That is common everywhere in the south. I've always had black friends, but its always been pretty segregated by choice on both sides it seems. Its not like I have black friends being like "hey man, let me come to your party," and I'm having to tell them no. Is it that difficult for people on this board to understand that they're probably not interested in 80's rock, Johnny Cash, hunting and fishing, and The Masters?

Well, what if an 18-year-old Tiger Woods walked in and said he wanted to pledge? What if a young black man whose parents are the Cosbys walks in and wants to pledge? What then? That's what my sorority was faced with in a way, and I think we made the right choice.

No, it isn't. I'm as white as it gets and I'm not interested in any of those things and am morally opposed to at least three of them. However, I don't think that's the point.

Ask Geekypenguin. I say I don't, but she would probably say otherwise. I do say "y'all" and "fixin' to."

But I wasn't kidding, I really did post a pic in that thread. just search for it.

Bill Gates:
On October 28, 1955, shortly after 9:00 p.m., William Henry Gates III was born. He was born into a family with a rich history in business, politics, and community service. His great-grandfather had been a state legislator and mayor, his grandfather was the vice president of a national bank, and his father was a prominent lawyer. [Wallace, 1992, p. 8-9].

Scarlett Johannson:
I don't know for sure, but I bet she didn't come from a poor background. Her grandfather is relatively famous and her dad is an architect (I have no idea how great).
