For someone who's been a member on this forum for a long time and with a 5000+ post record you would think you would know these things.


MULTI CULTURAL as in MULTI CULTURAL MEMBERSHIP!

They are a latino based fraternity with multi cultural membership.

Hint to you, HawaiiTKE: Since preciousjeni has held national leadership positions in a multicultural sorority, I think there's a good chance she knows exactly what it means. Her suggestion was that it seemed you don't, and this post tends to confirm that. Having multicultural membership is not the same as being a multiclutural GLO, where "multicultural" refers to the purpose, not the membership.

A thread worth reading: Why do multicultural GLOs/organizations exist?

Damn shame what they did to that dog.

HawaiiTKE isn't swift enough to notice that preciousjeni is a member of Theta Nu Xi. He is confused about everysinglething he has typed in this thread. I knew that his attempts at explaining himself would result in this.

ETA: HawaiiTKE's confusion is not only his and we've discussed this a lot of GC. People do not understand what "Latino based with multicultural membership" means. I have also seen it referenced as "Latino based multicultural fraternity" or included under "multicultural Greek organizations" on colleges' and universities' websites.

The trouble started when he was talking about organizations populated primarily by "minority students" and then settled on the term "multicultural" to describe them. Based on his posts, it appeared he was talking about any non-NPC/NIC "cultural" (I know you aren't too fond of the term) org.

Then, he unwittingly stumbled onto the contentious topic of what constitutes a multicultural Greek organization.

The trajectory of his posts doomed him from the start.

Yep, we tried to help Ike but Ike don't want no help.
