Oh, the irony.

Psst. I tried to mention this on page 3 LOL. It got crickets.

But seriously, this is a general statement that I am making here Many times NPHC is not a consideration when the topic is “Greek Life”. And it can be seen “in poor taste”, gauche, or even aggressive to try and mention it when “obviously we are talking about NPC/IFC”.

I do think that many in the “abolish” movement are missing key pieces of information, but I also believe they feel justified and led by their higher mission. I just question how far that mission is from that of their sorority/fraternity. I have my guesses, but it’s curious how far both sides seem to be to reaching compromise or mutual understanding.
