Maybe no black men were interested in joining a "white" fraternity at the University of Alabama until now. I know that A Phi A has been there since 1974 and is a well-known, historically-black fraternity that draws many interested black men on campus. I'm not sure if there are other historically black fraternal groups currently present on the campus also, but I would expect that the number of black men rushing historically "white" GLO's at the University of Alabama, a state school in the Deep South, has been rather small in the past.

Regardless of why it happened this year as opposed to any other time is irrelevant. We should be happy that it has in fact happened, and look forward to further integration among the groups.

Yeah. This isn't directed at YOU, but let's not act naive here. We KNOW why it took so long for a black man to join a historically white fraternity. Also, nationwide, there aren't a whole lot of black people in historically white fraternities and sororities either.
