I don't think many black women will rush at Auburn for various reasons, the main one being that they tend not to dream of Pi Phi or Kappa or the NPC organizations, but of Delta Sigma Theta, AKA, and the other fine organizations of the NPHC. The ones they've heard about all their lives, the ones their sisters and mothers are in. There's a black woman in AOPi at Auburn and I'm glad...I wish Auburn's GLOS and BGLOs were more diverse.

But another reason that they may not rush there, of course, is that they'd feel uncomfortable. I've seen enough posts on GC from members of BGLOs saying that they wouldn't want whites in their organizations to know that I'd feel very uncomfortable at their functions. To each his own...

However, I have 5 non-white daughters and I'm sure that they'll rush NPC sororities. It's all they've ever heard from the family and their friends at school.

What it all boils down to is that people tend to rush where they feel most at home. We have many non-Caucasian members of NIC and NPC organizations on Greek Chat, some from Southern campuses, and they went where their hearts told them to. Didn't we all?
