but man, i don't know how people can stand to stay on this board and take that kind of heat. I have a lot of other questions and whatnot, but I'm almost afraid to ask them for fear of being flamed....

We (outsiders) are not placing your organization in a box. The organization assigned themselves the title when it was named Lambda Theta Alpha
Latin Sorority, Inc; when it established it's mission as: ...promot[ing]
Latino Unity through charitable and educational programs. To maintain a high standard of learning and serve as a voice for all
Latino students.
If your founders did not want to be considered a Latina organization they would not have named it such. DSTCHAOS did a very good job explaining how many organizations, whether or not they are focused on a particular racial/cultural segment of the population, service
all women, that is almost a given with many of the sororities out here.
You jumped in a conversation 500+ posts old trying to "school" people. Had you read all of the posts before hand you would have better understood my post you originally quoted. And again when I mean only I will say
ONLY.
What you are also fail to realize is that there are many people on here older than you, in booth Greekdom and in life. Some GC members have 20+ years in their respective organizations so the history that you have recently learned and are referencing is history that they have LIVED and SEEN with their own eyes.
The "heat"/culture of GC is what it is. You shouldn't be afraid to post here.
- Just know when someone disagrees with you, or if they feel you are posting misinformation they are going to challenge on it.
- Don't hop into an old/long thread without reading what has come before you.
- Ask intelligent questions and make informed statements.
- And don't call names and expect people not to come back at ya.
Enjoy your stay.
Sorry, T La Rock, LL killed it.
