BGLO Brother/Sister History

[mccoyred]

From the beginning, Delta has chosen to not officially affiliate with any other Greek organization. As mentioned, we have unofficial bonds with both Omega and Alpha but there are others as well. Just listen to our Sweetheart Song, we love them all!!

Delta Founder Osceola Macarthy married Beta Chapter Brother Numa P.G. Adams.

Delta Founder Vashti Turley married Beta Chapter Brother Carl Murphy.

You left one Delta Founder out: Naomi Sewell Richardson was married to Clarence Richardson. I believe he was initiated at Beta Chapter as well. :-)

I didn't know that.

^^^Our songbook has many, many sweetheart songs. We have one that reminds me of you all's in that it mentions sororities by name. I wish I could read music -- I have no idea what it sounds like.

^^^ You are better than me. I left that one out because I never knew his first name was Clarence, lol

Hey, I'm a neo -- all the history is still fresh in my head! ;-)

PrettyBoy, aren't you too old to be thinking of this?

I still can't figure out why Alphas always want to run down what Apes from Beta the Delta Founders dated or married. Some even commit it to memory hoping to run across some Coleman Love-folk and throw it in our faces. Why does it matter? If the Delta Founders had married the actual founders of a fraternity, that may be worth noting. Other than that, their dating and marrying history is just that.

That's the only thing that makes me chuckle about this topic. Other than that, woopteydoo.

Well since we were on the topic of bonds, on some campuses you will find different BGLOs claiming a bond not normally heard like Alpha Kappa Alpha/Kappa Alpha Psi or Delta Sigma Theta/Alpha Phi Alpha. I stated the whole marriage thing to explain where some of these so called bonds come from. Any brother that has to throw "well Alphas married Delta founders so what about your Coleman love now" is trying way too hard. Trust that we are good just the way we are.

That shows how much I follow these varying bonds on some college campuses. I thought some Deltas bonded with Apes because of something like "fire and ice"--whatever that really means. Just like many Deltas think sharing colors and hair care products means they have to bond with Krappas.

Whatever floats folks' boats.

First bolded: Yeah, I always though that was a pretty thin "connection" -- but nobody thinks to ever connect the Pyramid and Sphinx aesthetic.

Second bolded: ihatechu. LOL

I think I may've seen a Pyramid and Sphinx connection. Maybe that only happens on campuses where the Deltas and Alphas have extremely high GPAs.

The best bonds happen at Sally's Beauty Supply. Don't hate!

Yeah that is a common one. Folks nowadays will create a unofficial bond over anything.

In case I've never told you, I really hate you.

Yes, the Zeta/Sigma bond is recognized nationally for both orgs.
