Diversity Stats at Penn FYI

by:    

Just so we are all on the same page- No relevant Frat or Srat is anywhere near 50% PoC, which would actually reflect Penn's self reported data:

diversity.upenn.edu/diversity-at-penn/facts-and -figures

If you thought Penn Undergrad was like 75% White, youre in for a surprise. Its 40-45%. Which means you just live in a Greek bubble where white=relevant. Sad.

50% of Undergrad International Students are from Asia, and Internationals are 13%. Which means less than 6% Internationals are White. This translates to 36+6 = 42% White conservatively. Then assuming like some of the Hispanic people are White, its about 45% White. Never seen a frat less than 80% White. These things speak for themselves.

dont be ret@rded, frats arent these massive juggernauts where it’s impossible to enact meaningful change. what can be done about it? just speak up in meetings. stop cutting ur poc rushes because they “dont fit the vibe” or whatever.

like its not hard yall are just weird

tbh PoC dont want to look like they are biased for other PoC... frats have no serious internal diversity programs like srats, so any PoC brother that vouches too hard for a PoC pledge risks being considered racially biased... which I know makes no sense

its not like frats will drop rushes because they're POC, its more like POC feel more comfortable going to frats with other POC and it ends up preventing those frats from getting any POC regardless

Freedom of association… it’s a right

By: yeah okay
by: yeah but   

freedom of association as long as it does not contradict protections against discrimination based on race, religion, etc
like if a frat wants to maintain a white only vibe thats fine, but not sure if they can call themselves a frat at that point. they are now a klan.

By: yeah but

First those protections don’t apply to private clubs - all the more reason to have off campus frats. Second, if will thomas can call himself a girl, the rest of us can sure as hell call ourselves whatever we want - frat or klan.

That’s true. But also it’s a perpetual cycle, people associate diversity with bad frats
