Sorhors and Sisterfriends,
I believe that a young intelligent college student or graduate woman would know from the start what the organization is all about before she tries to become a member of that particular organization. There comes a time in ones life when a person has to make decisions that will effect (end result) the rest of her life. Every female needs to carefully do her homework before she decides to take those steps into that particular organization. Most of these young ladies believe that they will have a backup sorority just in case they are rejected by their first choice. I really believe that these young women have confused BGLOs with the caucasian sororities because this is what these young ladies do on traditonally white campuses. They (Caucasian females) attend several sororities' rush events during rush week and they put in bids to the different sororities that spark their interest. I hate to burst a person's bubble but BGLOs do not operate from that paradigm. When I attended the University of Delaware I thought that was the strangest process and it will never fly with Sigma Gamma Rho Sorority, Inc. or any other BGLO sorority. It also seems that it's much easier to get away with this process because traditional pledging is no longer allowed. Yes, different chapters of the four historically African American sororities know that they are looking for women that represent, reflect, respect and will uphold the by laws of their organization. That's not to much to ask from decent young ladies that say they have the same high standards. Just my observations from all of the different post!
