assuming that an african american pnm chose a lower tier npc chapter because that was all she could get and the chapter was just desparate for warm bodies does a disservice to the pnm and the chapter. whose to say that it was not love at first sight for the pnm and that chapter?
But, we all know that sometimes that IS the case. I've seen it happen over and over at specific campuses--and although we also like to talk about how membership selection is the private business of the chapter, let's not pretend that there are chapter members who are less than discreet about their membership selection!
