Re: I'm confused now... What are you talking about?

Let me first apologize for the misinterpretation of my "perspective" I never for a minute tried to say the SGRhos were confused....I however was VERYconfused...and apparently other members of the NPHC (whose origination was the subject of the post) members were too. The same information that Kelli posted is the same information that I learned. Maybe a more accurate subject title would have been
"misinformed".

Just as an aside, I don't care to clear up your history as you say. The history I was referring to was not SGRho history. It was NPHC history. As everyone knows on these boards, I attended Howard University(where the NPHC was founded), and learning the history of MY fellow Greeks on campus was actually important. So, from your perspective I am a non-involved party. However, from my perspective I am a very involved party, especially since my Sorority was on the charter, and the chapter I mentioned, Alpha Phi is the Sigma Gamma Rho chapter at Howard was chartered at MY college after the founding date of the NPHC.

There was a discrepency in a post based on dates. I put 2 and 2 together and formed my own conclusion. Now clearly you have an insight that only Sigma Gamma Rho has. I stand corrected. Very honestly, I do still find it odd. But nevertheless, if what you have stated is true, so be it. Thanks for the knowledge.(Quite frankly, I would send a note to the NPHC and ask that the information you provided be added to the history...so the rest of us are not giving "misinformation").


I know this thread did not start as a NPHC convo, and I apologize again to the moderators and the topic starter for going off subject, no harm or foul was intended.

I have nothing to add to the stereotypes of your organization. Most of the Sigma Gamma Rho ladies I have met are all cool people.

1. Sigma Gamma Rho VOLUNTARILY WITHDREW its membership from the pan because of a CAMPUS CHAPTER QUOTA (meaning the number of total chapters required to join) not met according to the proposed consitution of the Panhellenic Council. Howard U had nothing to do with the quota.

I
2. SIGMA GAMMA RHO SORORITY WAS READMITTED TO THE PAN HELLENIC COUNCIL (their records state this) ON FEBRUARY 5, 1937. Don't call me a history expert for saying this, but that did happen before 1939.

3. THESE ARE THE FACTS. THERE IS NO CONFUSION ON THE PART OF SIGMA GAMMA RHO SORORITY INC. CONCERNING HER MEMBERSHIP IN OR ROLE AS AN ORGANIZER OF THE NATIONAL PAN-HELLENIC COUNCIL.

4. Why do you, a non-involved party, feel the need to "clear up" Sigma Gamma Rho Sorority Incorporated history with irrelevant facts? I, like, totally don't get that.
