HALLELUJAH Bama alums have seen the light

[GAgalBamabound]

"We are alumni of the Greek System at the University of Alabama who think fraternities and sororities should voluntarily admit their friends of different races, orientations and religious beliefs. While openness and inclusion was not the practice while we were in school, we now realize the world does not end when you open your heart and social life to all of friends. Inclusiveness is not a bad thing. Diversity is a good thing.

We are not about forcing or shaming anybody into joining this group. But if you believe as we do that your old house should invite ALL of their friends - Black, White, Jew, Gentile, Gay or Straight - let them know it.

When you join, please list the year you JOINED your fraternity or sorority - or keep it to yourself. So join if you want, don't if you don't"


Clearly says this group is not about forcing, just alumnae reflecting. Let them have their moment ,clearly 300 other people feel the same way the original creator does.

Some GCers might be interested in this. You might not be. Maybe I'll be the only person interested in this ( most likely not ), but as a member of this forum I am free to post anything appropriate. This is rather appropriate and related to Greek Life.

And we as members are free to respond to any posts. The point of a forum is to engage in (reasonably) intellectual discussion. Why would you post something here and get pissed when people comment on it?

ETA: KSU beat me to it and was way funnier :-)
