University of Mississippi - Ole Miss Panhellenic Sorority Recruitment 2013

[newbierebmom]

Good to know there have at least been a few African-American members of NPC sororities at Ole Miss. I just saw in the other thread that the story has made it to USA Today.

I wonder if the national attention from this will put any schools that have yet to undergo recruitment this fall (i.e. Ole Miss) under more scrutiny from chapter headquarters as well as university administrations???

I was wondering the same thing. Hopefully there won't be too much of a whiplash effect and dirty rushing in a desperate attempt to "get her."
"Chosen on her merits" is the goal.

Several chapters at Ole Miss currently have AA members. I understand that the Theta chapter has several AA members.

Having said that, there are some sorority chapters at Ole Miss that have never pledged an African American PNM. Personally, I would expect that those chapters might have some extra scrutiny this year, but not the NPC system as a whole. Just my own opinion....
