We've talked and talked about this issue but I feel like the number of African-Americans in historically white GLOs isn't likely to increase much--almost every AA woman I know has made no secrets of the fact that she wants to be a Delta, AKA, Sigma, or Zeta because that's all she's heard about her whole life.
We have a relatively small number of AA women on our campus and as nationals are starting to come onto the campus, I feel like the woman who's trying to bring her NPHC group will wipe me out if I try to recruit any of them for NPC sororities! She says she has a small enough number to work with anyway but it's complicated by the fact that the women have to be upperclassmen and have a certain GPA. Add to that the fact that so many of the AA women here are music majors and they live for it. Sororities? Who has time? There are 2 fantastic women in my classes whom I'd love to recruit but I've told her about them first because I want to see her dreams of bringing her GLO here realized. If they don't want NPHC, then they're fair game for NPC! Wahahahaha!
