carnation--

I would hope that your sorority, nationally, does not disrespect their alums by cutting women who are perfectly fantastic just because they aren't white. Besides, isn't there a legacy policy? We have one stating that a chapter may not cut a legacy without having authorization from the Vice President of Recruitment on the International Council. Chapters are fined $500, among other things, if they cut legacies without approval. It's about respect for our members.

I've seen GLOs here in the South with members who weren't white, as well as chapters of my own sorority. However--I do worry about what will happen in rush. It doesn't take too many people to cut a rushee and I don't think a member would be so stupid to say, "Let's cut her, she's not white" but they could sure manufacture another excuse if they had to. Furthermore, the girls might not feel comfortable in AGLOs or LGLOs because they've been raised with Caucasians and other international adoptees. I can only hope that their high grades plus school activities plus being double legacies will make the sororities say, "Gotta have those girls!"
