You are ABSOLUTELY right. When I studied cultural and multicultural based GLOs more closely, Sigma Beta Rho was most certainly a SOUTH ASIAN FRATERNITY.
But look what I found
here:
"One of my brothers is from El Salvador and another one is from Jamaica.
Sigma Beta Rho was primarily
South Asian to begin with but now the ideal has become to learn about other cultures. Even within the
South Asian culture, there are so many diversities. I know other
South Asian fraternities that have stayed predominantly Desi, but I think we're growing because we're not like that and we don't discriminate."
Sigma Beta Rho is the nation's largest
South Asian fraternity with 1000 members and 30 colonies coast-to-coast.
Uhhhhh.... contradiction? Are you a South Asian Fraternity or are you a Multicultural Fraternity?
Would I sound ignorant if I started using the term NJGLO? Because seriously, that's what these orgs sound like to me -- seems like every GLO I've seen from New Jersey is multicultural in membership and they all look like each other. Yes, the girls all have the "wet n wavy" hair and the guys all look like the Gotti boys, regardless of their actual race. It is the damndest thing!
