Rain Man,
I have been reading all of your responses and frankly, I'm just not understanding one thing. Why do you keep asking all these questions and after someone answers them, you say (paraphrasing) "I'm still not getting an answer, just rhetoric".
I think if you read the answers again, you will see that the AKAs and DSTs have MORE than answered your question. What they said is that they DO NOT feel their orgs should change their membership requirements to accomodate whoever it may be. That's the bottom line. They've said that like 3 times! Why don't you get that? I'm not trying to be rude or anything, but they really have answered the question. They may not have answered it the way YOU want it to be, but they have. So leave them alone. Dang!
You just can't go around changing rules and regs to accomodate every Joe and Jane. That is just not going to happen. I mean, you're Greek, would you suggest to your Nat'ls that they do that?...go around changing their req's to meet EVERY damn body that was interested, so they can get up in your org? NO, you wouldn't! It's insane and damn near impossible. You say you know so much about Black Greeks or whatever, then you should know how they feel about people who seek membership into their orgs. Being Greek is a PRIVILEGE, NOT a right!! Why don't you understand this? Geez!
