peace and blessings...

We are selective Fraternities and Sororities. As such we choose who will join our membership. Some applicants are accepted, others are rejected. Those who are rejected may have an immense desire to become a member. However that will never supercede the qualifications for becoming a member in the NPHC organizations.
What ABSOLUTELY DO
YOU KNOW ABOUT all of HBGLO's membership intake process' that would warrant one feeling unaccepted? Beware! Be leery with your statements here... There are National Officers from the NPHC and NPHC affiliates surveying this board... This is not even CLOSE to a JOKE!!!
Yes, being rejected hurts. Yes, our statements may seem hurtful to an outsider. But to put it bluntly, those rejects choose to feel hurt--and especially around US. They were rejected for a reason. Basically, they did not meet our criteria and we must reject them. SO WHAT? You think we should feel sorry for them? Okay. Yeah, I feel sorry for them. They are a sorry bunch of rejects!!!
Yes, I intend to be mean... But there are expectations, qualifications and standards which are crystal clear. But, I guess you want us to deal in mediocrity? Accept half assed people into our organizations? Okay. I get you. Everybody already can tell how YOU feel about the NPHC. How come it seems that you ONLY want to CRITICIZE the historically Black Greek Lettered Organizations?
I wonder?
