NPC has most of it right and NPHC has most of it right. Same for NIC. No one is perfect.

What I hate is when people come here and berate sororities, especially Southern ones, for their lack of diversity/lack of reaching out to minorities or first generation college students or whoever. This is WRONG. Women my age from my chapter and others are constantly working behind the scenes trying to help our chapters find the strongest pledge class we can, and race does NOT play a part in it. It doesn't matter!!!

And if we know of a girl who's rushing at a school that doesn't have our chapter, we work to help her find recs to the others, no matter what race she is. I'm a member of one Facebook group that was created especially for that and we are almost ALL Southern.

I am so tired of people saying that we're all rocking on our antebellum mansion porches, trying to keep women of color out of our GLOS. IT IS NOT TRUE!!!!

Then why do we all come here and complain about the issues I mentioned when we're willing to do nothing to change?

Who is saying this? Has anyone specifically been coming down on southern chapters and them only? I must have missed that.
