I'm sure I will sound racist in saying this, and that isn't my intent. So here is my opinion:

Why do GLO's need to be racially diverse? Why is it even an issue? GLO's market to all incoming students to promote recruitment events. Those students choose to sign up for recruitment and go through the process. Based on this pool of PNM's, the chapters select their new members.

Minority groups have done an excellent job of setting up supportive organizations to supplement minority students' active campus involvement; those organizations were cited in the article. If students can find a home-away-from-home in an NPC GLO, IFC GLO, Multi-cultural GLO, Divine Nine Sorority/Fraternity, Minority Student Union, Religious Society, Pre-Professional Club, Athletics.... etc... why, again, is it an issue? White males no longer dominate campuses. I think our universities are racially diverse.

If a traditional-age Greek college student acts inappropriately to another traditional-age college student, it's going to be pinned on him and his letters regardless of whether he was drinking underage, disrespectful to another person, performed poorly in school, or destroyed public property. That much will never change. I think the university administrations need to be teaching tolerance of all people, but that needs to come from the school. I really don't see where the Greeks are creating racial barriers as a group. Ongoing membership training and leadership training preach the need to be accepting of others, tolerance, etc. Why is it fully up to traditional-age students in a GLO chapter to "teach" diversity when they are in the academic environment to "learn?" Teach all students.
