What doesn't play with people up here is the constant referal to faith, religion, colour... whatever. That is why they haven't "meshed" with the UofT GLO culture and Alpha Phi Alpha (1999) has. Yes APhiA is a black fraternity but they don't make it an issue and neither do we.

You make little sense.
They are brand new (1999) and have not made a good impression with most of the girls or guys I have talked to.
So brand new has something to do with what exactly? Oh ok. And so your impression of what others say is the end all, be all? Oh ok. And in terms of size, how big is your chapter and how big are they?
They don't like the fact that Zeta Beta Tau is also trying to start up (well has been since the early 90s) and the other GLOs accept Jewish members (there alumni advisor actually told me off for this).
In other words, you're saying you're not an AEPi but know how they feel. You've moved beyond sympathy towards empathy. Oh, ok.

I don't speak for, of, or on APhiA because I do not know them. But you've spoken like a pro so far, so I guess I'll just say "oh ok" to you again.
Now last time I checked, the guys in the UofT AEPi chapter were great. They were a large chapter given the fact that they were recent. They are highly decorated every year when it comes to awards. They have given the international fraternity several travelling consultants already. They are highly involved in the community and donate money and time and even did a holocaust rememberance ceremony there.
