Rejected black rushee starts "multi-cultural" GLO at AL

Nothing in the UA Greek system will change unless the racial environment on that campus changes. I DOUBT that somehow all the really racist people just happened to end up in frats, and the rest of the campus is totally normal and integrated. Chances are that the social life in that campus is completely segregated, and that is just reflected in the greek system. The UA Greeks can't MAKE black people pledge if they don't want to, and I somehow doubt that many of them at this school want to, simply because of the environment on this campus.

That doesn't mean that the UA Greeks are entirely free from fault. The fact that no black girl (not biracial, but BLACK) has EVER been accepted is HIGHLY HIGHLY HIGHLY suspect, and I really have a problem believing it is solely due to a lack of interest here. Race is playing a factor, whether some of you would like to believe that or not.

This whole argument over how racist Alabama is or isn't is kinda pointless. Everyone's experience is different, and none of you can be totally right or wrong because anecdotal experience means squat if you don't have figures to back it up.

Neicy81, you should really take a look at the way you post. Your style is really condescending and offensive to everyone you reply to. And I have yet to ever see you back up claims with empirical data. Anecdotal evidence really doesn't mean much in a good argument.

Tom Earp- can you believe I actually kinda agree with you? I have had to break down folks in the past too sometimes, and I HONESTLY can't say that I thought you were wrong in this case. Almost every time that Neicy has ever responded to a white poster it has been with rudeness and condescension. It's highly unnecessary, and I can see why you lost your temper. If some of the black posters on here were being honest they'd probably say they agreed with you too, but party lines and all....


Rudey- LOL. LMAO. You crazy.
