Man...if they was Made, that legacy shit dont mean a damn thing...just cuz you're legacy, you still got to go thru your process, which dont make it any easier.

Not all NPC chapters, even in the same national GLOs, do this kind of stuff, but some of the recruitments are really image driven.

It seems to me I remember people repeating rumors about historically there being a "brown paper bag test" for early membership in some NPHC groups. I'm not saying it was ever true, but I think it points out that image can be (or maybe was) an NPHC issue too.
as far as the brown paper bag test...yes its true. well not my org, but there is one in particular, but its an ugly part of history, and one that was corrected decades ago. i mean we got certain stereotypes in the nphc for each individual org, but only a fool would actually base a decision off of that. and i still dont see the point in numbers....i'll take QUALITY over quantity anyday. but thats just me. if it just so happens that there are 20+ quality individuals in a particular chapter, thats wats up, if not, then thats a waste. but i'm lookin @ it from the outsiders perspective...ya'll do what ya'll do tho...i wouldnt...
