There are indeed AA women in NPC chapters. Just not at Alabama before now (other than one exception I recall from years ago).
There are indeed no white women in AKA at Alabama. I don't know how many (if any) have pursued intake over the years. Neither do you. I don't have any reason to think they have eliminated a candidate due to race.
However, it appears that according to their purpose, they are entitled not to integrate.
I don't really see any point in arguing the fairness of this. As far as I know the AKAs have a good relationship with the NPC sororities with whom they share sorority row.
I just pointed out that Miss Patterson's disparaging assumptions are discouraging and counter-productive to the integration changes she claims to champion. And that she is a member of a segregated sorority.
