Not outcasts in that connotation you are implying. Outcasts in the sense that I said in my original post; that they are not white which is the majority. I would think that's why they join an multi cultural fraternity to combine something they all have in common, which is coming from ethnic backgrounds.

Your original post was quite clear.

"Multicultural fraternity?" Are you putting all fraternities that are not majority white in the "multicultural" category?

Since minorities have yet to have that massive town hall meeting in which we agree on everything, there are a number of reasons why racial and ethnic minorities join fraternities and sororities that are predominantly racial and ethnic minority membership. Feeling like outcasts and/or sharing minority status in common is not the only reason.

We would if we could get all of the nonwhite people to show up to the meeting on time. Everyone's on CPT. How will we ever think, say, and do the exact same things if we don't have a meeting of the minority minds?

I know it's not the only thing. I would just guess that's one of the contributing factors. I would just call the multi cultural organizations MULTI CULTURAL if they themselves are labeled that.

50+ posts and this user has yet to say anything remotely entertaining or useful. Verbiageness abounds.

Right so you were only talking about the multicultural fraternities that are self-defined as multicultural. Good.

I'm curious how the social exclusion applies given this new information.

HawaiiTKE 04-19-2011 04:37 AM

Social exclusion? I elaborated on that already. If you read the posts you will know what I meant.


And yes only the ones that classify themselves as multi cultural.


And personally I don't really care if you don't find any of my posts entertaining. I'm not here to entertain you.

You keep using that word. I do not think it means what you think it means.
