What in the world is going on? I went to that site and I saw that mess too. Founding month and day ... Ivy leaves ... they have gone a bit too far. It has been said that imitation is the sincerest form of flattery, but this is too much.

I hope life isn't a big joke, because I don't get it.

Before you criticize someone, you should walk a mile in their shoes. That way, when you criticize them, you're a mile away and you have their shoes.

Maybe in order to understand mankind, we have to look at the word itself: "Mankind". Basically, it's made up of two separate words - "mank" and "ind". What do these words mean ? It's a mystery, and that's why so is mankind

I am not feeling the use of many of our sorority symbols, dates and etc. There are a million things one can choose to be affiliated with their group.

However I think if they feel the need to form a group more power to them! I am really opened minded when it comes to people expressing themselves in the way THEY see fit. Just because we are members of mainstream BGLO's (or striving to be) doesn't give us the right to pass judgement on this fraternity. I imagine in 1906 and 1908 many a mainstream sorority and fraternity frowned upon the founding of Alpha Kappa Alpha and Alpha Phi Alpha. Sometimes I think we should strive to be more understanding..... IMHO.

Weird! I'm not here to clown anyone or pass judgment! To each his own but c'mon the use of Ivy leaves, pearls to the links on the page, same founding date? True no one owns exclusive rights to these symbols but out of respect they could have atleast chosen different things, been original! But that's just my opinion. :roll eyes:

My thoughts exactly!!!!! Respect is a two-way street. No, we don't have exclusive rights to these things but all of them combined together does suggest they were heavily borrowed ideas.

And to the gentleman from this fraternity that posted a thread on our forum and sent me an e-mail:

No, I did not close your thread. However, this morning upon my return I made the decision to delete it.

Yeah - I agree - I'm not making any judgment call but I find this to be very humorous. In fact, I think our attempts to see the site somehow took their server down. I've not been able to read the information on the site. Oh well - - -
