There was certainly a lot to unpack in this video, while I do wish they did a deeper dive into a particular topic area, but I get that they were trying to unpack TikTok videos around Bama rush but I think they going into this an that you sort of locked the unlocking the mystery of these TikTok videos.

But what I do see is there is a lot still a lot of general systemic issues that still impact recruitment of those PNMs who don't quite fit the typical sorority mold. There are also clearly issues with the culture of how these individuals are raised and the expectations of how to enter into "society".

I think really at the end of the day its really about addressing these systemic issues and some of the cultural expectations that still occur on some campuses that need to change in order to really see the make up of membership.

I've been serving in a regional role for my org for a few years, and one thing that is abundantly clear is that there is still a disconnected between collegiate chapters and initiatives from their respective organizations exec offices. I think may orgs are working are working to acknowledge their not so lovely pasts but that's only one step, its then enacting changes to move them forward.
