A few questions, if you don't mind dstbrat:
- What school did you attend as an undergrad?
- If all the NPHC orgs proclaim they are service orgs as opposed to social orgs, but they also step, have calls, chants, etc., what would be the problem with 25/52 following suit if they are non-NPHC service orgs?
- Do you feel that only NPHC orgs should or be entitled to step, have calls, chants, etc.? How would you feel if SAEs, Sig Eps, Chi Os, Pi Phis, Lambda Chis, began to take on the NPHC social aspect in their orgs?
- In short, is the historically racial aspect truly the dividing line between NPHC and 25/52?
