I loathe the words diversity and inclusion because they are so vague.
No one I know really cares if their NPC group admits a non-white woman. You know what? I went to an SEC school in the seventies and no one in my group would have cared then.
But NPC seems on a mission to destroy their groups. They don't want us to use recs. They seem to want us to just give up and pledge anyone who walks in the door. Recs introduce us to women we don't know and they also warn us about women we reaaaally shouldn't pledge. Let's say we pledge a couple of people we like during recruitment (no background information on them bc no recs) and it turns out that they pull trains. In their letters. Or they make racist or hazing videos. In their letters. Women like this have cost chapters their charters, and the forementioned examples have actually happened several times.
Should we be forced to take anyone? Do football teams have to let anyone walk on and play? Must Phi Beta Kappa have minimum GPAs for induction? Should dues for all organizations be outlawed, or should current members be made to pay dues for people who can't?
Think of what you really want when you're discussing diversity and inclusion.
