Probably the most racist thing I've ever seen in an official fraternity publication..

LOL

That's expected.

For me, the most racist thing was photos of Brothers in blackface in the Torch & Trefoil, the Alpha Phi Omega national magazine.

Don't ask me the date, I can't remember, but I saw it with my own eyes.

Was it in the archives, or was it something that happened after you joined?

It was from well before I joined. A chapter had a "jungle" themed fundraiser and the members were dressed as their idea of jungle savages.

It was not from the 90s-era style of T&T. It could have been from the 60s or 50s.

Please remember that even that soon back when, there was a lot of racism going on! In 1965 when I was going to approach Sigma Nu to Colonize my local, the State of Kansas said no Greek Organization with a White only clause would not be allowed to expand.

We were Colonized by LXA in 1966 and never looked back. One of the reasons was I founded Beta Chi on No hazing. The Black GLO's were strong at The Pitt. and I had friends in all of them.

When they faded, we were the first to initiate Blacks on campus. Why, because the were super guys which brought a lot to the chapter.
