These are rhetorical questions that I don't expect you to answer here, but questions that should be asked when considering such a drastic change.



You're confusing me here because you assign LTA as an LGLO and a minority GLO within the same paragraph. And in another thread you "informed" me that LTA isn't exclusive to Latinas. So what is it, is LTA an LGLO, is it a minority GLO (I'm working on the definition of Minority GLO that I'm familiar with, and that is one that caters to or is mainly encompassed of minority people), is it open to and geared toward all women?
what, okay, i guess because latinos are taking over america, they should not be considered "minority" anymore. i'm using the word minority in a general sense to relate it to other orgs that also cater to some minority (be it a general minority, a specific minority like asians or blacks) minority does not equal multicultural or else I would have used that specific term.

i just said above that it was inclusive not exclusive. how much clearer can that get

from our national website:
Diversity

Lambda Theta Alpha is not an exclusive group of women. Although our roots are Latin, we have sisters from various cultures, nationalities and races including Caribbean, Caucasian, African American, European, Central and South American, Asian, Middle Eastern, and many more. We are an organization that fights for the empowerment of all women, regardless of their race, color, creed or religion. Latinos as a whole are multicultural and came about through the fusion of three cultures: the Spanish, the Indigenous people dwelling in Latin America and the Africans.
