And I don't need to work through the text of anything. As a member for 38 years, I know the inner workings of my sorority--you don't.
My apologies for misreading. I thought that you were claiming that Title IX didn't apply to you based on IRS status. A6a certainly applies!

I sort of wish you had been over on Wikipedia, I've been dealing with this overthere for quite sometime, with an Alpha Phi Alpha brother declaring that Alpha Phi Alpha is a service fraternity. Information from the NIC (which APhiA also belongs to) bylaws hasn't been incredibly convincing to him. And for some reason Alpha Phi Alpha's constitution and bylaws aren't published online...

Any suggestions for gifts for our Elementary School Principal (who is a DST) for taking a promotion to Title I director for our school system (Montgomery County Maryland)

Tell him I SAID APhiA is not a service fraternity! You don't need our bylaws to prove that.

Social fraternities and sororities have certain hallmarks. Who is that guy, anyway?

Anyway, I'm going to bed.

Well he hasn't responded in a while on the talk page for the NPHC article, if he does I'll drop you a line and *you* can argue with him.

Get her what you would give her if she wasn't a Delta.
