Should you "pledge" an Auxiliary Group?

[IceColdLBG]

As a member of Alpha Angels Inc, I can say that people dont understand the meaning of becoming a part of these organizations. Dont get me wrong, each chapter does their own thing and to each its own, but my chapter is not about being nobody's groupie or anything even like that.

On my yard, the scouting process is the same as it is for a sorority or fraternity with the exception that the boys going on request which girls they recommend. You have to qualify as a woman worthy to be apart of something so sacred, which cancels out those "groupies." A brother/sisterly bond is built between us because we are each others' support system as we go thru this process together.

We dont claim to be greek and we respect those who are (those who EARNED their letters) We are Incorporated on our own and dont consider ourselves to have affiliation with the Fraternity because although they are why we exist, we are woman first, with beliefs of our and can exist without have any man to lean on. So although we thank the Fraternity for having a hand in our existance as Alpha Angels, if the Fraternity was to become extinct, (NEVER, LoL), Alpha Angels will still have a job to do supporting womanly deed, love for all mankind, and scholarship.

*scratchin' my head* What? Is he saying he is going to depend on the "Alpha Angels" to "hold up Alpha" if they ever cease to exist? I need that scared as hayle smiley to insert right here...

I think the person was just saying if Alpha Phi Alpha, Inc ceased to exist (not that it ever would...), the Alpha Angels, Inc. would still be in existence, be able to continue doing everything it does now, and uphold its ideals. That was my interpretation...

That is an Alpha Angel.

GRITS' interpretation is correct.

DSTChaos, thanks for the clarification. I'm still tripping that auxillary organizations are still relevant! LOL

You're in a sweetheart org, who are you to think you know anything about respect and earning letters? Like your respect means something. LOL.

Greeks: I don't care that these auxilliaries are their own orgs now, keep them in their places.
