But even then, things could have been found out (i.e. she was in an NPC at her old school, she's slept with the whole football team) that have nothing to do w/ race/orientation/status. The fact that it was discovered at the same time is a coincidence.

It may be easier to decide which NPHC you WANT to be in, solely due to mathematics - 4 vs 26, and even campuses who don't have all 26 usually have more NPCs than NPHCs - but the GETTING in definitely is not easier.
do you mean over the course of rush week, or during NME/pledge period? or after said PNM is initiated? I'd think the issue would be more the lying than the actual "being black" part.

see, in the scenario you described, it could always be explained as "oh, well maybe if Patty PNM was honest with us from the beginning... how can we ever trust her in the future???"

then the race issue is totally muddled in an argument that is far from the original action.

I think she meant during rush week.

Edit: Nvm, she beat me to it.
