Lady AKA,
Again find myself having to explain that MY opinions about MY fraternity are MY own!
With all due respect, I have every right to voice how I feel about the way MY Fraternity does it's process. No one is saying that the harder you pledge the better Brother you will be. In MY opinion pledging is the easiest part. If you do nothing after you cross then you might have well as skated! I think that when it comes to the JEWELS of A-PHI-A, they have set standards in our frat as to how they want people to join. All we are saying is that there is a vital lesson in brotherhood missed by those who didn't have a process like ours. Not saying that MINE was harder than everyone elses, because no one process will be the same, but If it were as easy as signing your name to a check then my JEWELS probably would have made the frat open to everyone instead of a frozen few! There are many brothers out ther who share the same ideas as myself and there are those who don't let us discuss this issue. I don't judge other organizations on their processes because that doesn't pertain to me. I'm A-PHI-A, not AKA, DST, K-A-PSI, O-PSI-PHI, S-G-RHO, Z-PHI-B, or P-B-S. I am discussing this with members of A-PHI-A. Eventhough this is not a private forum, I am only interested in the bruhs response to this issue. Just like you all told Bruh Professor not add his 1906 cents to a topic that you sisters were discussing a while back, the same advice applies here. If you wish to carry this conversation further you can e-mail me at fuquanlove@hotmail.com
