And please believe had I been a brother before you, it would be a cold day in hell before I'd let you get initiated. Your feelings about APO are clearly passive at best and combative at worst.
Get YOUR facts straight. Instead of internalizing the spirit of what I said, you decided to nit-pick the fact that I said "all-white." Who cares? You're the only person who didn't seem to grasp the spirit of the message.
APO has never kept records based on race. While it's possible that there were African American brothers before 1947, all we really know is that '47 is when we first expanded to a historically black college.
And I NEVER said that GENERAL (not so-called "social" fraternities) are in the same category as RECOGNITION fraternities. However, at one point, they did have more in common than you're prepared to recognize.
I am a scholar of Greek history and traditions, sir. I really don't care what you claim you witnessed -- do your research and bring me some facts. Your anecdotes are meaningless because your credibility is nil.
