There are no caps imposed on any of the organizations.

What are pledge line limits? And why would it be competitive then if there are no caps?

Competitive-They don't choose everybody. They choose who they want. There were 300+ at my rush. Only 48 were chosen.

Limits-None

The national organization does not set limits on the number of members that they can accept. However, the school can and a lot of times does. That is why you will not find it listed on the nation sites. Also, in the situation where the school does not set a limit on the number of applicants that an org can take, then the chapter may exercise their discretion based on several factors. Does your org accept every PNM? I didn't think so?

The chapters at Howard are competitive because they are ALPHA CHAPTERS. Now this may not be significant to non NPHC members, but the Alpha Chapter is the birth place of the organization and VERY significant to NPHC memebers.

Also, taking 6 years to graduate is NOT a reflection of intelligence. There are SEVERAL factors that go into the amount of time it takes to graduate.

If you have something that you would ike to say concerning HBCU's or Black greeks or anything else why not come out and say it??

Thank You! There's no need to imply or beat around the bush. Speak what's on your mind.

The school tells you how many people you can take into an org? At every campus?

And what did I have to hide about HBCUs and BGLOs? Someone said Howard was the best of the best (and thus other schools weren't as good) and I questioned it. I'm pretty upfront and honest on here. If you'd like to know my feelings about anything from autistic kids to Howard, PM me and I will express them just for you sugar.

It was from Seinfeld. Elaine was at a party and this woman wouldn't stop talking about her baby so Elaine said the dingo ate my baby.

I can't speak for every campus as I do not attend every school. But SOME Greek Affairs offices at SOME schools, including HBCU's Limit the number of new members an organization can take. for anything more specific, I am going to suggest contacting those schools directly as to ensure that you get the correct information.

What was your purpose for posting the Dept of Ed. Stats and referring to them as overachievers? I took it as scarcasim. And please do not refer to me as sugar. I take OFFENSE to that. I am going to refrain from PMing you as I don't think anything productive will come of it.

Actually, (after a brief seacrh ) I found the movie that the line came from. The title of the film is A Cry in the Dark, and Meryl Streep uttered those famous words.

This has all been explained in this thread. If he has certain people (who have explained this) on ignore OR he fails to read all of the posts...that's HIS business.

I forgot about that movie. You are right. But the movie was a sad movie and I think people started saying a lot more (to be funny) following Seinfeld.
