...just wanted to add that in our little ol' alum chapter of about 16-18 members, there are three active members who are 50-year members...and one is over 60 years involved & still drives herself to events!
To all those who said they've been asked why they are still involved with their sorority and they're not even in college any more...
I just got asked the very same question the other day! If I had a dollar for each time a comment like that was made to me or a question like that was asked of me...well, I'd be a rich cranky old broad!
There are many involved in their sororities for life -- whether NPC or NPHC --- guess someone could tally up the numbers and tell us exactly but why? What's the point?
It is really sad that one's race, religion, or gender still matters nowadays...I long for the day when those things just won't mean squat!
In closing, I'd like to cite this quote from one of our country's most distinguished citizens, Martin Luther King Jr:
I have a dream that my four little children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin, but by the content of their character.
AMEN TO THAT!!!!!!
