You're not going to change my opinion on the matter and I'm not going to change how your organizations look at certain people and accept or reject certain people for whatever reasons. No big deal. That's what makes organizations different. If we were all the same, we'd all have the same letters on our chest and college campuses would be boring places as it pertains to greek affairs. Reds, you're right...we should be able to accept and reject whoever we want for whatever reason without facing penalties. Unfortunately certain groups can't do that without legal action being taken against them. I guess that's just a burden we have to carry. No matter though. If organizations are happy with how they look at certain people and how they treat certain people, more power to them. That's their choice and their right.

Let's be clear my organization ACCEPTS all women of different backgrounds. I said I wouldn't necessarily vote for a white member, which is one vote. My vote can't deny membership to any young woman, white or black. And if you re-read many of the previous post you were given reasons. I also don't believe in double standards so if a white person voted no for a person of color, I would respect their choice.
