The point is valid. So lets discuss the post on its intellectual merits rather than well any thing else lol.

So lets examine the premise:

1. Are there chapters that are exclusively white at schools that do have minority populations?

2. Are there regions of the country where this is more likely to happen?

3. What would be some of historical or cultural reasons for this to be true. i.e. Campus Climate.

And in fairness, maybe at these schools a majority of the minority students just don't have the qualifications to join? That could be another plausibe answer. The Minorities just don't have good enough records.

I always see how Rush is ultra competitive.

Anyway lets see commence some discussion.

I cannot believe that people let this STUPID remark slide!!!! The minorities just don't have good enough records???? Are you serious???????? Do you understand that most people that get accepted to sororities in the NPHC not only HAVE to have over a 3.00 gpa, but be involved in the community service BEFORE seeking membership, hold an office in another organization and other things just to even get a second look? How many minorities student have tried to be a member of your organization for you to know that minorities just don't have good enough records? For schools that don't have many minorities, it's not because they didn't met up to standards, but it's because they never even thought twice about joining. Maybe it's because they know that groups like yours have attitude like yourself!!!!!


to suthrnbelle:
No disrepect to your daddy, but ummm.... he really needs to read the bible in a little to bit more detail. Maybe he missed the chapter when Jesus said not only love you neighbors, but also love your enemies. It was a good part. You should suggest that he reads it......

As far as a double standard for white people joining NPHC, you have to really question why a white person would want to join a group in the NPHC. In the mission, ideals and service of the NPHC, it is all geared towards African-Americans specifically. You have to really ask yourself, is that non-black person joining because they are trying to be "down" or do they really believe in what the organization stands for? To tell you the truth, SOME of the non-white people that I knew that wanted to join the NPHC, were only doing it because they thought it would be "cute" to be a white person in a black group. Who would want someone like that apart of their organization?
