I looked at the University of Maryland AOII facebook, and did not see AA members (and none among those in white dresses - are these new initiates?).
The Arizona State University Panhellenic Recruitment Guide doesn't reflect NPC chapter membership of AA women either:

Just using those examples as you mentioned these states.
So I guess my question is -- what threshold of AA membership is considered "fully integrated" and sufficient to claim that a chapter is racially diverse?
Do these chapters actively recruit AA women? What have the chapters you advised done to address recruitment of potential members from diverse racial and socio-economic backgrounds? |
I dunno. I just worked with the KD chapter at WUSTL for two years, though, and the WUSTL greek system is more integrated than I dreamed possible.
One clue is when someone from one sorority looked at someone from another chapter at WUSTL and said with a little bit of a whine and a little bit of envy: "Why do YOU get all the good black women?"
It was that way when when KD got there, though. WUSTL is a crazily diverse school.
