Because they should have done enough research about their organization of interest and NPHCs in general to know the basics of what is accepted and what is not..I mean afterall, they DID come to a forum about BGLO
Yea, you are right. But i dont think it is safe to assume that people who are interested in a BGLO, or people who visit/post in BGLO forums are actually trying to PURSUE an organization. Some people are just curious and want to know what all the hooplah is about. Now if you are ACTIVELY PURSUING membership into an organization and have been steered in the right direction, then there should be no excuses. Yea some of the things posted were kinda ignorant, but honestly, it is understandable for some college students (freshman, tranfers from other schools who havent heard of any greek org) to wonder why wearing a certain org's colors is a big deal. It's one thing for an org to peak your interest, but i think its a whole 'nother story when you begin pursuing. Like i said, i might just be interested outta curiousity, but not that interested where im begging for admittance.

lemme know if im not making sense because i tend to talk in circles...
