Duh. I am very much aware of what the meaning is. Just because people don't go to a Christian school doesn't mean they don't know things like this.

This is my point. Alpha Kai Omega is not only pronounced the same way as the NPC sorority, it is also the original name of the group the sorority was founded from. These facts are public, very easy to find with a simple google search and were available when this "club" was founded in 2000. It isn't like there aren't any AChiO chapters in the state of Texas.

She didn't form Alpha Kai Omega so chill. I'm assuming you're a GATA, BeeVee? Thanks for your story. I think that it illustrates that PNMs don't just join smaller chapters because they have no other choice. For many people, these chapters are where they feel at home and meet the people with whom they make the best connections. I commend you for listening to your own intuition and not to the tent talk.
