It was not clear to me that you accept women as members since gender/sex is not mentioned, and since your mainpage refers to the "men of Gamma," and says: "Going above and beyond the call of duty is what’s necessary in counteracting the negative images that society has attempted to coin our young African-American men with. Let us make the difference, proving that our young black men are productive citizens who are more than capable of contributing greatly to society." I did eventually find reference to membership being open to "all individuals" at the Start a Chapter page, though.

Not that it's my problem one way or the other. But as jeni says, it's a question that does and will arise, and it helps everyone understand your organization a little better.

Understand GBX a bit better.......maybe.

But the approach just smacked of seeking canon fodder to mess with the noob.

Then again, maybe that's just the approach here.

Sorry you saw it that way. Wasn't trying to gather cannon fodder at all.

Funny how a poster's choices might be seen by a reader to mean something other than what the poster actually intended, huh?

No problem. A couple of your brothers are mine as well. So I took it for granted, that if you came through PMA at a HBCU, you may know them.
