Why is it that the people who never aspire to be apart of any BGLO or who have never been rejected… do so much research on our organizations ?

If I may-

Here at ASU we have a Greek 101 class, facilitated by members of each of the 5 councils (and for those of you that aren't caught up with the 5, its NPHC, IFC, Pan-hel, NALFO, and MGC) with the mission to educate people on the different cultures that encompass the Greek system.

I was lucky enough to facilitate that class, and learn a lot about what other councils do. Their public traditions, what it means to step and stroll, and also learned about alot of the public history (particularly about APhiA, AKA, ODPhi, and KDChi (the latter 2 are NALFO orgs))

I found it incredibly interesting to learn about what people thought, how chapters were started, where, by whom, and what the reasoning was behind it. Being a member of a Greek org myself, I know why we were founded, I know by whom, what we stand for, as well as almost everything that there is to be known... But it's always intrigued me to learn about others.

So questions that are being asked, if all intent is pure, are nothing more than the seeking of knowledge to make people become less ignorant.

Shrug, just my two cents.

editors note: I mean no disrespect in my response, so please don't take it that way.
