I wasn't going to get into this 'cause it ain't my battle, but CT4's post made me change my mind... (you are right, sometimes you gotta talk about the uncomfortable stuff to clear the air)
Can SOME sorority members be a little thin-skinned about some issues? Certainly, but then some MAJORITY folks will say we, as Black people, can be the same way about what we are called. My point is, so what if Sigma Gamma Rhos are called Rhos, or Gammas, or Sigmas where you are. If a person on GC says we prefer to be called X what is the harm is accomodating their request? Why go into the "Well on MY campus we call them Ys and they don't have a problem with it, so that's what I am going to call you!"
I think most of the Black folks on this site would have a cow if someone called them colored and then said "Well I've always called y'all colored and the good colored folks in my hometown don't mine so I'm still gonna call you colored!"
