I am perfectly willing to go on record saying Alpha Xi Delta does not discriminate based on race or religion. The only time I ever experienced the issue of race at all is when we DID pledge a black girl, and I don't recall it being discussed in any way shape or form. And same with the Asians and others (I can think of Chinese, Vietnamese and Mexican Americans right off the top of my head...) who were members of my chapter at the same time as me, 25 years ago. I would be willing to bet that the percentage of girls of color who don't get bids at all is right in line with the percentage of white girls who don't. Even at the supercompetitive old-south schools. That of course isn't to say that it doesn't happen EVER, but not enough to get your undies in a bunch.

And I will also go on record saying we DO discriminate against parrots. Just sayin.
