Oh, and it really irritates me that you aren't willing to recognize diversity for what it is, which (at its simplest definition) is to have a variety. And you can't look at the NPC organizations on UK's campus & say they don't have a variety of women from different races, religions, & ethnicities. It would just be completely false if you even thought it, let alone insinuate it on a public message board.
No what is false is simply your definition of diversity. Why does diversity necessarily have to always be defined by race. I could walk into a room full of African Americans and argue that they are diverse in many ways. UK, as well as many PWIs, throw the diversity word around as if it's a hot potato. Many whites are oblivious to the undermine and hidden acts of segregation on campus. Because it doesn't necessarily personally affect yourself, you are apt to think that it doesn't occur.

And I whole heartedly agree with rhoyaltempest, the solution lies in the unification of support, not necessarily a merging. We should learn to supprot one another's events and not just attend the stepshows because you think it's "cool"!

Oh...and this is a public message board so I think I can freely speak my opinion about anything!
