Besides, I take offense for you calling it a WGLO, but it is definately NOT just for whites. On my campus, black girls who try to join sororities get harassed by the BGLOs. Now that's racism isnt it?

I am not sure where you go that information from but it is entirely FALSE>
BGLO's DO NOT discriminate on the basis of race. I have met members of all 9 BGL organizations who represent all races. I have Black, White, Asian and Latina Sorors in Delta Sigma Theta. Please do your homework before spreading misconceptions.
Now your experience may be tha you hav eonly encountered chapters that were 100% Black but that does not represnt the entire organization. Just as I have encountered many GLO's that were 100% White.
There are a number of threads on GC regarding this issue. A search may be helpful and help to dispell some of he misinformation you have seemingly received. Although I do not remeber the link, I remeber a thread that connected to an article about ALpha Kappa ALpha that specifically addressed the multicultural nature of the mebership. While all 9 orgs are predominately Black organizations, we are not 100% for a reason.
