GFK:
You know you did the best thing for you. It saddens me to see other "interesteds" try to diss people who have their letters. It's just petty ugliness. On the other hand, I have no problem with people seeking membership into organizations based upon family ties. I am an Eastern Star, and I expect my daughter to become one one day (waaaaay in the future
). I also want my children to attend my alma mater, but I won't force them, just like my mom didn't force me to go to 'Skegee. I like the idea of family traditions.
INTERESTEDS: If you don't have your letters, and you aren't GUARANTEED a dang thing in this world but taxes and death, WHY WHOULD YOU PLAY YOURSELVES by trying to perpetuate a TIRED bunch of cliche's?? grow up and stop being childish. This immaturity is NOT what these organizations are about.
Every one of us needs to read "The Divine Nine" and LEARN something! I am enjoying it. It has not changed my mind about the sorority I am interested in, but it has broadened my historical knowledge of NPHCs.
