I guess I am going to go against the grain with this one and say that I agree with the NPC girl who was speaking earlier and say that if they don't accept you over something you cant help then that is just ridiculous. As a member of Omega Psi Phi we have about 2 or 3 members in our chapter who couldnt hop to Atomic Dog if their life depended on it. But that has nothing to do with the aim or the purpose of our organization so we don't look down own them for that. One of them is our acting Keeper of Records and Seal (secretary) and he does a very good job and another has a very high GPA and great social skills.

Everyone isnt going to be good at everything but I bet there is a way that you could help the sorority you wish to join in a positive way. I know a member of phi beta sigma who has no arms, would it be right for them to reject him because he wouldn't be able to hand out flyers? I think not. If you have other great qualities then you should have no problem with your organization. The AKA's at my school had 20 new members but only 13 of them participated in the "probate" show. The others decided not too and it was no big deal. NPHC orgs are not only about stepping and/or any other sole social aspect, they are about well rounded people. So if you cant speak publicily I am sure there are members of the org you wish to join who can, and i bet there are aspects that they fall short in that you are strong in.

And please don't down this girl because she doesn't understand the way the membership intake process goes, she obviously is interested so don't turn her away.
