It pains me to think that this intolerance and discrimination still exist. I can only hope that you do choose to go through. If you do, one of two things happen: 1. You will get a bid and your future sisters won't even notice your skin color. They will see you as an intelligent, well-spoken young lady with all you have to offer the sisterhood. or 2. You go through and get to meet all the houses. You may get cut, but you'll go on to do great things and be a positive influence on your future campus. The women you met will be kicking themselves for passing up on such a fabulous young woman.
(Or you could come north and check out snow and such. : )
Good luck and let us know how things go. I'm rooting for you / your happiness!
