I can stay silent no longer
My post somehow got erased, so I'll get to the point.
To Theta Pharoah, congrats on you and your bruhs starting a new org, best luck in all your endeavors, great points on your posts, and most importantly, don't EVER feel that you have to justify your org to anyone. It's your org, do as you wish with it.
To Reiki, great points made also. I agree 1973%
To the NPHC naysayers, you ought to be ashamed of yourselves. Who are you (or anyone, for that matter) to feel that it is your place to validate any org? Furthermore, who asked you to do so in the first place?
The following items were brought up, to which I say, "SO WHAT??!!"
- Founded at Denny's. Jesus Christ was born in a stable and his humble beginning reaped much fruit in his 33-year life. I don't recall any NPHC org being founded at the Waldorf-Astoria or some such glamourous surroundings. Pick a more mature argument than that to laugh about. That's trivial.
- Website. They are undergraduate students, yall. Give them room to breathe and grow. I trust indeed they will change and modify their site as the need presents itself. Let them portray themselves as they see fit. Darn!!
Overall, I think this whole issued was handled poorly and immaturely. For orgs that boast 80-90 year histories, I would anticipate better from this. They are less than a year old. Make allowances for that. I know other folks made allowances for you. Or did you forget that because you were founded so long ago? I know, selective amnesia. It's all good.
Again I ask, how can the NIC have 65 orgs and the NPC 26 orgs and none of them get bent out of shape when a new GLO arises? Oh, maybe because they started in the 1800s and know which battles to fight and which battles to let go.
My 1973 cents.
