A couple years ago during a student organization fair an older black lady came up to me and asked if there were any African Americans in my sorority. I said, "no." She said, "why not?" My answer was simply I don't know why not. The school that I went to had a large number or African American students and it just seems to me that they just preferred to join Alpha Kappa Alpha or Delta Sigma Theta. Which I don't see anything wrong with that. I joined my sorority because that is where I felt comfortable at and I feel that is how everyone should look at it. I don't think you should look at it as a black/white issue. Different organizations have different values and standards, you have to think about why you want to join a particular sorority and if they are right for you. It doesn't matter to me what your skin color is, it is what is on the inside that counts!! And I truly believe that!

Our organization fair took place a couple of days ago and we had a ton of girls that were interested in signing up for rush, black and white. I hope our new pledge class is awesome!!!!!

Have a nice day
