One of the African-American girls got some kind of "Delta Sigma Theta" scholarship - I didn't hear exactly what it was because I wasn't paying that much attention, but I noticed because of the Greek letters. Is that common, for BGLOs to give scholarships to incoming freshman? Would that imply their interest in the girl, so that she might say to someone "well I'm going to be a DST in college"? Or might it just be because her mom/sister/grandma was a DST?

Good question. My chapter has a scholarship program and the funds are given to males and females. Relatives of our members are not eligible. Our applications are given to school counselors who they recruit the applicants. We analyze the applications based on GPA, need, and extra-curricular activities. We have been doing this for over 20 years and I can't even tell if any of the females became Deltas.
