Family Love?

[gamma_girl52]

Hello all,

I know we haven't talked about this one in a minute. And this thread was probably one of the best convos I have had with my brothers and sisters.

The reason why I'm bringing this back up...I met a couple of you at the annual Cookout this year (Casanova, Big Papa 29 and bro_strawter, but he didn't know my face when I hugged him, lol). And I wanted to ask some questions, to get it started.

The first question is actually directed to Casanova, who pledged at a co-ed chapter and this was his first "exposure", if you will, to the 25/52 family. What did you think? Honestly. I'd like to see what your opinon is on everything...hopefully it's not too loaded. But I think I need to see how you're looking at it from a co-ed member perspective.

And to my Psi Phi peeps...I did meet see young lady that was a member of your chapter and I don't think anybody treated her disrespectfully while she was there. But because ya'll are openly co-ed, and an African-American chapter as well, how well does your chapter "fit in" in the family? Have ya'll ever had drama before with other brothers/chapters because of it?

And to the group: I don't know about APO Nationals, but I believe my Nationals just doesn't know what to do with the fact that some of their members associate with APO...and the entire thing is not official to start with. Would it help any if we acknowledged each other more formally, including each other's organization in our history? Or maybe another avenue? I'm asking because I think in order for people to take "us" seriously, we are going to have to do something, and fast.

I think that's it for right now...let me hear your thoughts!
