And alot of the whites in that organization would prefer to be surrounded by other whites outside of their service projects, hence why many of them have or will join a nonBGLO.

I surround myself with people I love--it has nothing to do with the color of their skin. Sorry to disappoint you. If we had had a BGLO at my college, I would have definitely looked at it in the same way as I looked at the PHC sororities.
