I don't know who posted this list, but to clarify. Delta Psi Epsilon works hard to be multicultural. The racial/ethnic division is not a function of our organization, but a function of our society.

People tend to flock to those with whom they feel the most comfortable. For this same reason, all the black kids sit together in the cafeteria at school.

As national president of Delta Psi Epsilon, I try so hard to reach out to women of various cultures, denominations and ethnicities. We want our organization to represent the body of Christ which includes ALL of us. However, these efforts are sometimes not reciprocated because of the barriers and prejudices that people have. It's unfortunate, but true.
