there is a reason why folx be calling SGRho "the UN"
i've met sorors with all sorts of backgrounds, white and Latina included - and that's on the undergraduate level. of course that affects graduate membership cause... because well, undergraduate members at some point become graduate members.
ETA: realized i didnt answer the question...
while i do not agree with having negative sentiments towards non-AA people who are interested in AA organizations, im sure it happens, on an INDIVIDUAL basis. i cant speak for whole chapters and organizations, not even mine. but i do agree with questioning the intent, whether it is subconscious or not. i would imagine members of predominately white orgs (sorry, i really dont like using Caucasian) do the same when approached by a non-white interested member.
i dont have friends or associates even who are part of said white orgs, so i can't give any concrete examples. but i do give room for people to question why people of other backgrounds have that desire to join. of course everything is case by case basis, so what i would decide for one non-AA interest is more than likely going to be different than the next decision for the next non-AA.
