There would be a token "other" here and there in a couple of the orgs, but most of them were keeping up the all-white tradition. In case you are wondering, I attended the University of Maryland, which is not an all-white school at ALL. But I do have to admit that some of the sororities on my campus, even while being 99-100% white, did manage to have diverse membership (as in religions, majors, interests, etc.). But of course we also had the complete cookie cutter sororities as well. I really hope that the situation is different at other schools, that there really IS ethnic diversity on other campuses, and I hope that the social sororities on my campus can find a way to bring diversity to their chapters.

My sister is a Theta at Maryland, and she tells me that she chose her chapter because it wasn't cookie cutter like many of the others. We're Jewish, and she's a legacy to AXO and DPhiE, but she chose Theta over DPhiE (or the other "Jewish" sororities) in part because she wanted more diversity (among other things).

EDIT: this is just from the information she tells me, I dont personally know, I haven't met her sisters...
