Just a few thoughts...
Quote: Are you an Aux?
We make no qualms, are not ashamed and accept our history that our organization started out as an affiliate organization. That purpose has not been as such since 1980. END QUOTE
Just to be clear, Legitimate Sigma Gamma RHOmeos were still being made through 1989. While Sigma Rhomeo may have begun planning its future in 1980, the parent organization, SGRhomeo, was still alive and well and functioning as an official affiliate of Sigma.
Quote: Rhomeo did not start off as a "typical" auxiliary org. Rhomeo's were originally husbands and boyfriends of SGRho's who protected them during the racially charged climate of Indiana. As the sorority grew, so did Rhomeo. END QUOTE
True, Rhomeos were originally the husbands, boyfriends, men in Sigma Women's lives but they did not, nor were they purposed for protecting us during the "racially charged climate of Indiana."
They assisted us with executing our mission and providing public service and programming so that all persons, particularly African Americans, could exercise their full potential and citizenship.
