I think it's more like they were the first one to HAVE the actual written clause.

PKS voting to not be all white is not the same has actually being non-discriminatory.

I can't think of the words to describe it, but it's like TKE took the affirmative to come right out and state that they wouldn't discriminate blacks, and PKS took the negative, as in we're not officially all white by process of elimination.

ETA: My friend, who is a TKE from Drake, said that the "If you can't go Greek, go TKE", was actually started by the fraternity itself as a campain to Blacks who couldn't join other "white GLOs".
