I can't agree with you more. There is a lot of love in this forum! That just goes to show you that no matter what anyone says, Delta's and AKA's can get along without all the petty arguments!!

Greek Love to all and Much love to all prospects!

Greetings and much respect to the Ladies of Alpha Kappa Alpha! And a big ol' "OOOOO-OOOOP" to my Sorors Deltabrat and Babygirl. I hope you ladies don't mind me jumping in to say that I think it's so wonderful that all of US intellegent, sophisticated black women can share in such a loving exchange, regardless of the colors we wear. I can relate to the 'crossroads', when it's time to make a decision on what organization best represents you and your ideals, but I must say that I've had my heart set on Crimson and Cream from day one! However, I've never had anything but respect for AKA's. (My mentor and high school english teacher is an AKA has worn at least one pink and green item every day for the last 20 years!) In the end, were all good old God-fearin' sistas trying to make a difference. So a big ol' OOOOP-SKEE to everyone and please keep up the positive vibe!

Deltaluv's quote: "In the end, were all good old God-fearin' sistas trying to make a difference. So a big ol' OOOOP-SKEE to everyone and please keep up the positive vibe! "

I think that what my soror Deltaluv said is something that most greeks forget. Basically what it comes down to is that in the end we are ALL sistas in Christ. PositivelyAKA: Thank you girl, I just call things as I see them!

OOOOOOOOOOO~OOOOOOOOOOP to my Sorors and OOOOOOOOP-SKEE to all AKA's! All other greeks, nothing but Greek Love for you all!! Prospects much love to you all!

I've always had my heart set on my AKA as well. Ironically, most of my older college friends went Zeta and the ones that were my age aspired to be Delta. However, I've always wanted AKA.

Skeeeeeeeee-Weeeeeee my Sorors!
Skeee-Phi Frat - (I saw you lurking somewhere!)
Skeeeee-OOOOP DST ladies!

First off I'm not greek but very interested in ALPHA KAPPA ALPHA Sorority Incorporated.

How do you ladies (and gents if any visit) feel about people who start pledging one organization (we'll call A), drop, and then decide to pledge another organization (we'll call B).

QUIT PLAYING!!!!! Your joking, your just trying to shock me, aren't ya? That is what makes me boil! I'm waiting-I'm waiting-and will continue to wait, and wait. Not join another organization! Grrrrr!

Go with what your HEART is in...My Godmother as well as my sister (only sister -- f'89) are Delta's. That's all I knew. When I went to college, I looked at everything -- all organizations. Of course being influenced by Deltas, I thought that would be my ultimate choice. However, that was all changed upon my first step onto the YARD! The ladies of Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority, Innnncorrrporated! Were all that and a bag of chips.

Needless to say...I've been a card carrying member since November 24, 1991....Skkkkkeeeee-weee!

And to piggy-back off of what everyone else is saying, it is always wonderful to see young, intelligent, BGLO women interacting...especially w/ all the stereotypes and the like! And I'm extremely proud of the young ones! As a person who used to work with the young BGLO on a campus, I know that some of us still don't get the fact that we are NOT suppose to be 'at' one another!

A lot of times I think that tension is imposed from outside- some of my good friends throughout college were Deltas, we were friends before Greek life, and will always be close if I have my way about it! It just so happens that what they wanted was not in my heart, but we are all cool peoples now despite the attempts by some to cause strife!

It is amazing how much folk on a college campus want to start feuds over petty things that don't involve them! If we all weren't the classy ladies that we are I think we'd have had some issues. But there was none of that.

Okay, this is probably going to be the dumbest post you all have ever heard but when I was in the ninth grad I was introduced to sororities by my Principal and my High School Counselor. One was an AKA and one was a Delta. I had no idea any others even existed. The AKA gave me a little book to read and the Delta gave me "In Search of Sisterhood". Now, you can probably imagine the rest of that part of the story, I thought Delta was the BOMB . Anyway, I also thought red was my favorite color so I will just be a Delta when I go to college. Well, my first semester in college I was paired up with a Sophomore who was on the same kind of scholarship I had. She was aspiring to be an AKA and we talked indepth about how she felt and how I felt. She crossed that next semester and afterwards invited me to hang out with her and her new sisters. I saw that the personalities of the Deltas on my campus were very different from my own. She told me to be honest and decide if the Ladies of Delta Sigma Theta would be the kind of people I wanted to spend time with or hang out. I decided no, and began to research the others. Which led to my interest to become a member of Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority Incorporated. I now advise anyone to base their interest not only on the image of the organization as a whole but the caliber of the local chapter because "these" are the people you will be spending a lot of time with.

It takes humility to acknowledge faltiness and the grace of God to correct it.

I apologize.

First greetings to the Lovely Ladies of Alpha Kappa Alpha as well as the women of excellence and fortitude elta Sigma Theta.
I hope that you fine ladies would find in your hearts to allow me to say a few words on the subject. I am a member of Kappa Alpha Psi Fraternity Inc. and most of my friends are Alphas. Where I plegded, Francis Marion University, there was alot of problems in NPHC. I think that it is the result of poor screening on our parts as prophytes that we have selected people that have issues as such that create discord, which none are in this forum today. I am glad that we still have members from various organizations as yourselves!

Yours in Eternal Greekdom,
Kasm
