My goal was not to change the organization, but rather see if they would be OPEN to change. Mission accomplished, no aloof attitudes, no phony cliched "Membership is a priviledge" lines as a cop-out, just open ears and open dialogue.
Having said that, I just hope all NPHC members understand why there has been a great influx of Black non-NPHC orgs popping up all over the US and I appeal to all those who are ready to start hatin' on the orgs through the websites' guestbooks because of Greek-letter sequence, color schemes, the simple fact that they started their own b/c they did not like any of the NPHC orgs, or any trivial garbage like that, to remember, as you said "Membership has it's priviledges".
Moral to my post(s): Closed minds don't get fed.
Merry Christmas

Thank you Rain Man. I was trying to get my words together before I sounded too defensive. You answered well. As my Zeta sister stated earlier their Amicae have been around since the beginning of their sorority and so have our Sigma Gamma Rho Philos. It is not a question of us "needing" them to carry out our programs as the AKA stated. We certainly don't "need" them but we really do "appreciate" them. They are our "dedicated friends" and we just organized them and gave them an official name. THAT'S ALL!!
MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYBODY!!!
