Just to add onto the original topic of this thread... Kappa Kappa Gamma at UT has an Asian in their pledge class this year, and they are considered one of the "big 6" sororities. Granted this is probably the first Asian that Texas Kappa or any PKT sorority has ever pledged, it is nice to know that the "big 6" is beginning to become more accepting of minorities. Hope your recruitment went well!

Some of these posters assume GLO groups at some schools are "lily white." Yes, change is gradual, but maybe before you assume, take a look at the yearbooks at some of these schools and look at the pictures and names. Auburn was one of the schools mentioned. Before you make an uninformed judgement, pick up a Glom (yearbook). Any baby steps forward are steps in the right direction. Not wanting to join a "middle or lower tier" sorority is certainly your choice, but it does limit your choices. Maybe there should be a question on the recruitment form to check off the groups you are too good for.

Way back on page 4. (Not that turqwind's post was responsive to that one mention of Auburn.)

At least she didn't call her "an Oriental."
