Some Greek rivalries are rooted in the historic discrimination that blacks have oppressed themselves with (i.e. you can only be one of us ivy chicks if you have light skin and long hair). Others have been the result of the closed mindedness and insecurities of individual members.

Eventually most people grow up and see the error of their ways.
