Midwest Diva, I am not sure, but I do believe that one of my founders did lend some assistance (I am not sure to what extent). I am sure that the lovely ladies of SGRho will correct me if I am wrong.
As for the brother/sister relationship, the Nupe that told you that we have no sister org was right. Kappa Alpha Psi Fraternity, Inc.is it's own entity. But we do have a common bond. We were both started at historically white schools in Indiana. APhiA being the only other org that was started at a white school.
Now it does depend on where you go as to how much "luv" Nupes and SGRhos share. There are some campuses where the Q's and AKAs are tight, and some where the Nupes and AKAs are tight, some where the Sigmas and SGRhos are tight, it just depends. Some brothers are very insistent that we need no one, and that we shouldn't associate ourselves with one particular org. That's on them. Though we number over a hundred thousand, we probably have that same number of opinions about how to deal with this subject.
I will end with this. I have mad luv for the ladies of SGRho. When I was in Undergrad one of my best friends was an SGRho. She pledged up in NYC and tranfered down to my school. Now on my campus we didn't have any SGRhos so she actually started the chapter back up. I traveled with her once or twice to parties at other schools, once to a school in NC, and once to VA Tech (Damn them girls at VA Tech was fine, but I digress), and I got a chance to meet these sistas and they were just as nice and down to earth, and showed me mad luv, even though at the time I wasn't greek.
So I have been luving SGRhos for a long time, over a decade, and will kontinue to luv them till the day I die. If another brother doesn't choose to feel the same way, then that's on him.
