"But what kills me is that this entire thread got started off a article that did NOT MENTION APO. Now I got people calling out Sigma talking bad about how we wasn't pledged right, which hits me personally because I pledged teh young man in question. Now if you can find anywhere in that article where APO got disrespected please let me know.
Never did he question APO's legitimacy it was to the people fronting, if you KNOW APO isn't fronting and about buisness then it shouldn't even be a issue. I get so many comments about Sigma's WANTING to be like Ques but it doesn't bother me cause I KNOW I DON'T WANT TO BE A QUE (no disrespect to the Omegas). You should've just laughed it off and kept it moving. I think he was talkign about the Campus Pals but then again I'm not in the guys head so I have no idea really and neither do you."
I wrote a song about it, like ta hear it, here it goes
First, when I read the article, I didn't take offense because APO "was" mentioned because it wasn't, I took "offense" more like annoyed because I am member of a non-panhell frat on campus, APO NSF, Inc. I thought the article was disrespectful to all of non-panhell groups, KKPsi, TBS, Phi Sig, APO, GSS, and any other org with greek letters who does calls, etc...the howard bubble comment, I mean come on!!! But otoh, I only care about APO when the sun sets!
I posted this on our board b/c I am a brother of APO and I wanted to get an opinion from other brothers to see if they have experienced being challenged by others on their campus. I nor true ever accused Sigma of "challenging" my org because Sigma didn't write the article, a member of Sigma did. When True Blue
wrote her article, she wrote it on behalf of herself, not the frat or any of its members and she states it in her article. Personally, I thought that the article issue was done with until I read the rebuttal to True's article in which someone made an "attempt" to call out ZP chap! And I 100% agree with you when you said, . [/B][/QUOTE] I hope that this clears up my position but just like you won't have your org disrespected I won't have my org disrespected
and we didn't... Now as far as the other stuff, I cant speak on it because I didn't write it...
So I hope that you see where I was coming from!
News
P.S. No one has the right to say anything about what another org does, including why sigmas step with canes (i thought that who ever questioned that was ignorant too!) unless you are a member. I mean, what is it to you!!! That is what bothered me the most. While I was at howard, and after graduation, I didn't understand a great deal of things, ie...why did the band pledge, but I learned that it wasn't my biz unless I was trying to join! So just like you didn't understand why we seemed so riled up, I didn't understand why it seemed to bother the initial author about what other orgs do! So let's agree on everyone minding their orgs business! (I don't mean to write that comment with an attitude!)
P.P.S. I am not sure of when you graduated from Howard, but if you have graduated from HU before 2003, then you may or may not know that there are some newly rechartered orgs on campus...and almost all of them do calls, probates, etc...
VI P.P.P.S.
TRUE, BISHOP, SO ANXIOUS and SAG...I MISS Y'ALL SOOOOO MUCH!!!!PHI QUE
