Yes, when I was an undergrad, the pres. of the Black Student Assoc., was interested in pledging Omega but did not, presumably out of respect for his brother, who was a Kappa declinded to pledge in my chapter. But later he did pledge Omega in a grad chapter.
One of my LBs little brother pladged Alpha at my Alma Mater.
I would like my son--when I have one!--to follow in my footsteps and become an Omega man--and that become a family tradition. But the decision would ultimately be up to him. I have talked with a brother who told his son, whose roomate and circle of friends at college were Sigmas, that if he pledged PBS, not to come home again. He was serious!Some Greeks do have very strong feelings about this issue in general.
