Latinos are as black as Sammy Sosa and as white as Cameron Diaz...
Sorry, heard it from George Lopez, your statement reminded me of this one....
Now back to your regularly schedualed thread

I would find it interesting if you would break your list up into national/regional/local classifications. I don't know if you even have that kind of information, or have the time to break the list down, but if you do, that'd be cool.

There is a local sorority at Sac State called Omega Xi Chi... I think. They were a multicultural sorority that used to play in Superbowl with us. However they didn't this year. I don't know if they are still around. I know that they adopted a section of Hwy 50 because every time I go West, I see their name on a sign saying "The section of Hwy 50 adopted by Omega Xi Chi."
As far as a website, I don't know if they actually had one. Like I said I don't know if they even exist anymore. But if they do... I wanted to add them to your list.

Lambda Theta Nu Sorority, Inc. is a Latina sorority. I am a member. We do not claim to be a multicultural sorority because as Mommag posted, our purpose is to serve the Latina/o community. However, we welcome any interested, academically qualified woman to pursue our organization, regardless of background.
There are some Latina founded sororities who call themselves "multicultural" on certain campuses, as an earlier poster mentioned with an example.

Lambda Sigma Gamma was founded as a multicultural sorority, and has always been. They do have many Latina sisters on some campuses, but at other campuses they are extremely diverse.

I interested in what your purpose was in gathering information about MCGLOs? Is it just a personal interest since Theta Nu Xi is a MCGLO or does it serve an educational purpose?
Just curious

I haven't quite decided how far I'm going to take it. I do know that I want people to realize how many multicultural sororities are out there. I think it's also nice, for me personally, to know what's going on in the multicultural world.
On a side note, it's about 3 AM and someone just banged on my door really hard and scared me half to death. When I looked out the peephole no one was there! Scaarryy!!! I went and got my knife and came back to check it out. When I went outside, no one was there.
I'm hoping it was just my drunk friend who called me earlier!

I'm curious as well. Are you trying to set up a website devote to MCGLOs. I'm just wondering because most of the information can be found at www.lationogreeks.com

www.latinogreeks.com doesn't list all of them, though. But, I'm not trying to set up a site. Just interested in research.

Another one...
Delta Xi Nu is a multicultural sorority.
This might be off the subject, but as we can see there are TONS of multicultural sororities and it seems like there is a new one popping up every day. Why are there so many new multicultural sororities starting everyday? Are people creating latino, asian, or indian sororities this often? Are the existing MC sororities around not meeting some type of need that people are looking for? Why start something new when you can be apart of something that already exist? It seems like too much work to start something completely from starch when you and just help an young existing sorority get stronger.
What do you all think?
