Herein lies the problem. Membership selection IS confidential. Therefore an NPC chapter cannot correct assumptions/accusations of why any PNM is released because they are not allowed to talk about it. Not to our alums, non-members, and certainly not to the press.

How often have we all heard stories right here on GC about Penny Perfect PNM who got released? Everyone responds maybe she didn't click with the actives, maybe there were 100's of others who were just as perfect, yadda, yadda, yadda. Add race to the mix and suddenly the assumption is it was racism.

It doesn't matter whether membership selection is confidential.
