as an asian american, i had to decide whether to join a MGLC or a NPC chapter and I chose an NPC because I wanted to diversity of women as well as the formality of it. Also, I didn't want to suffer the incessant hazing that goes on within Asian-American interest sororities on my campus. Not only does hazing occur, but it is accepted because they use the excuse that it is for "cultural reasons" of which my campus's greek life refuses to argue against for fear that we are discriminating against them. In addition, to my knowledge, i find that they do not help advance asian-american interest or expand the knowledge of others. what i do notice is far too much underage drinking from them while they are wearing their letters because it is supposedly cool to be drunk and representing their chapter.

i am not saying this is representative of all chapters, but i have yet to see what these asian-american interest sororities have done for asian-american men and women. all i see are underage drinking parties and women who were already friends joining the same sorority so they can create a formal clique that others cannot be a part of.

i am not trying to offend any other multicultural glos, because i am not sure what those are like, but i just wanted to share what goes on at my campus.

I could disagree with you on quite a few points, but I'll choose to disagree with the point that they "create formal cliques for themselves". I gather the same could be said about your sorority or any other sorority for that matter.
