Experiences of minority students in greek life

Hi Everybody,

I'm a grad student in a College Student Affairs program and I'm currently working on a project about minority experiences in greek life. If some of you could give me your perspective on your experiences, I would really appreciate it.

If you are a minority:
-Did you join a predominantly white organization or one aimed toward minorities, and why?
-Before you joined, did you assume that you'd feel more comfortable in an organization that was not predominantly white?

If you are white:
-If your organization is mostly white, what are your thoughts on why more minorities don't rush your organization?

In general, what do you think that some strengths of greek letter organizations that typically consist of minority students have that predominantly white GLOs might not be able to provide for minority students?

Is it safe to say that students of any race can typically feel comfortable rushing any kind of Greek organization at your school?


I'm familiar with Greek Life so I know that many of these questions vary from person to person, but I'd love to get a variety of opinions. Feel free to chime in on your thoughts on minorities in your school's greek life in general, too. Also, if you could include the type of school you attend(ed) (e.g., small private school, large public southern school, etc)it would be much appreciated! Thanks so much!
