Look, this is not an issue at my chapter. However, as I've said before, who am I to judge what person might fit into another chapter's organization? People with differences in religion, race or sexual orientation don't fit into certain chapters? Do I think less of Auburn (merely a fictitious example) for not extending a bid to a black person because it's a house full of rich, white kids? No. While this individual might fit into the Columbia chapter, he might not fit in at Auburn. Different strokes for different folks y'all. We all discriminate in the process for one reason or another. I personally am not of the belief that discriminating on the above factors is any better or worse than discrimination based on looks or popularity. Discrimination is discrimination any way you slice it. The only way to avoid it in this case is to try to extend bids to the entire rush list or freshman class. Otherwise, you're technically discriminating against some individual. That's not good. I'm advocating picking who's best for you, period. Don't think less of chapters who are rich kids not poor kids, white kids not black kids, christians kids not jewish kids. They pick who works with their chapter dynamic and it should be left at that. Period.
