For one, I'm Filipino.
Ok, I did go a little too far not calling them "real", but I know at my campus they do haze, very harshly, and in the open. We were at a supermarket at nigth and saw a multicultural sorority hazing their pledges there. I'm not going to say anything, but I know if it was IFC or PHC doing that, there'd be repurcussions. And having pledges both an Asian fraternity and Delta Sig, I know from my own experiences that ethnic GLOs do some pretty harsh stuff. On top of all that, IFC NEVER looked at my race as a factor, yet when I was pledging the Asian frat, all they'd tell me is "IFC is so racist, they'd never take guys like us"
I know that ethnic GLOs do good work in the community and what not, and I know some really cool people in them. I just think they should be governed the same way we are.
I know I'm just speaking from experiences at my school, but I know it's like this at other schools too. I know that's not enough experience to make a generalization (maybe), but from what i know and from talking to others, it's not fair.
