I hope that Ms. Twilley finds what she wants if she chooses a MCGLO. What I always wondered, however, is whether her mother was in a NPHC sorority. No article about her that I've seen has ever broached the subject. Or, could her mother have been rejected? (her mom is a librarian and most librarians, at least the ones I know, have at least a bachelor's degree).
As for the geography issue, I'm in California. At USC, my alma mater, we had a handful of AfAms in NPC/NIC organizations during the time I was there, which was from 1982 to 1986.
My feeling is join whatever you feel comfortable with. There are too many SERIOUS issues we have to deal with, such as securing a quality education and making sure we have economic opportunities, to freak out over a black woman who doesn't want to join a D_9 organization.
My main organizational interest is working for Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority Inc. I would only be p****d if Ms. Twilley tried to pursue graduate membership in my organization.
Oh, Honeykiss: That's why I stay away from isht like that in Greek Life. Some people can't stay on topic.
