does that make asian folks who join white organizations twinkies?

hmmm....

Actually, no I don't think it's a Greek issue. When it comes to GREEKCHAT.... notice GREEKchat.... yeah. Didn't know I was supposed to talk about everything else.

I don't even know what a twinkie is. I've never heard that term before. And I'm being 100% honest. The only time I've ever heard that to describe someone was a homosexual man and that was from a SPAM porno email. There are a LOT of terms that I've learned on GC that I've never heard in person before.

The closest racial issue I've ever seen on my campus was when we had our old UMall. The African American students (who I later learned were the basketball players and Alpha Phi Alpha brothers) were always in a room we called the fishbowl (because it was a separate room and all glassed in). That wasn't even an issue except the segregation. But that's how it was in there..... Greeks (IFC, NPC) had one part of the "carpet", you weren't welcome in the fishbowl unless you were hanging out with those who were already in there, and GDIs got everywhere else. No one had a problem with it. It wasn't that African Americans didn't converse with others... but from a Greek point of view, the African American Greeks didn't converse with us. Even when we tried to get them to participate in Greek Week or other activities, they either didnt show up or didn't want to. (I know Alpha Phi Alpha had something going on and when they did participate in one of our events, they were some really cool guys and we wanted them to hang out more).

Even on 9-11 there wasn't much of a difference of racial clashings. I couldn't believe it when I heard that one of our Muslim Arab Greeks had comments made to him at a gas station. So yes, I am sheltered. I duno how much else I can explain it.
