I will be honest with you: I am a male of European background & Third Generation American so I guess I would be considered WHITE.

If I mistakenly offend you/anyone I apologize in advance I have no ill will toward any organization unless they make a mockery of what we fight so hard to accomplish as Greeks.

I have a few questions:

-I saw Stomp the Yard (I know it is just a movie) are the recruitment scenes accurate for Traditionally Black Universities. I saw the movie in the theatre and it made me proud to be a Greek. The portrayal of the internal struggles were things that we all go through during our Pledgship, Candidacy, Commitment period, etc... In addition is membership on larger campuses based on your ability to stomp. (By the way I like the story/history of the stomping and the rhythm which are created)?

-I attended a University in the California State system and it appeared that chapters such as the Omega Psi Phis, the Phi Beta Sigmas and Zeta Phi Beta came and went each year. It was strange but when I asked questions I found out that they were chartered locally (basically covering multiple schools) rather than individually at each campus. My question would be is this true or were the chapters on my campus merely colonies that failed and rose again in later years.

-I love to learn about Greek Life history as well as the history of Secret Societies. Is there a traditionally black version of Skull and Bones that has been rumoured or even confirmed?

Just as a reminder please don't bite my head off. I hope I haven't offended anyone and if I did please let me know in what way and I will keep from doing it in the future.
