According to the KAO website, they've never had a discrimination clause. I have, however, heard that a few NPC groups did PRIOR to the creation of the NPC...can anyone clarify this for me?
Also, I know there's gotta be at least one AOPi on the board...I've heard that AOPi was founded because one founder had been rejected from a sorority at Barnard because she was Jewish...is this true? I know that some sororities (like Chi-O) were founded upon Christian principles. Were there ever discrimination clauses based on religion or nationality?
I also read (in Our Kind of People--has anyone read that book?) about Barbara Delaney at Cornell in '56, but I thought that another sorority at another school had accepted a non-white member prior to '56...'56 sounds really recent. Can anyone clarify?
