Of all the rushees, there were two girls that were "obviously" not white. Vyshali pledged Kappa Delta and she and I are very good friends - she and I are living together this summer. The other girl was black and dropped out when she realized that none of the BGLOs did formal rush with us. There are several girls of mixed decent - Hispanic/Caucasion, black/white, ect., many asians, and several Jews. It just depends on who rushes, but there is
no GLO that is exclusively white.
I think that one of the reason that the chapters in the south may be more "white" than other has to do with history. Historically, there is a lot of racial tension here. I know that my grandmother is extremely racist - she was raised that way and refuses to change her way of thinking. Probably, a lot of people are raised to think "oh, we don't associate with blacks or whites" and they just never fully grow out of that frame of mind. Sometimes the south seems soooo irrational.
