“Safe” Sorority Houses

by:    

Houses that seem to have good BiPOC retention and no major scandals regarding racism

AXO
AOPi
Chi O
DG
DPHiE
Gamma Phi
PiPhi

Def give all houses a chance but here are some houses that won’t tokenize or run girls of color away.

Pledge against racism testimonial 3 and 79 talks about a recent racism scandal involving former dphie president. Situation was poorly handled by the chapter

2016? I wouldn't call it recent.

agree. 2016 is a long time ago and they have a WOC as their president

The people involved in that are no longer on campus, and chapters can change radically as people graduate and new members are selected. Doesn't change what happened in the past, but doesn't mean that that is the culture at the chapter now.

DPhiE currently is one of the most woke and accepting chapters on campus

And they have a WOC president, which I do think is notable because while houses will accept WOC they don't always encourage them, feature them, or vote for them for leadership

Aopi has one testimonial too. And it’s on Facebook. One of the mothers thought she was a house worker not a sister on move in day. There’s more to the story but I forgot. She graduated already though and stayed all 4 years.

That's not really a testimant to AOpi and how they as a chapter treat POC though. The testimony of Aopi that I read was that a frat wouldn't hang out with them when they took a WOC and there were comments on here saying awful things. That's more of a testimony of this person's experience with racism within Greek life as a whole than to AOPi

Yeah I read that too, it sounds like there were two incidents--one involving the Phi Mu house mom and one involving the mother of an AOPi member. It's horrible and never should have happened, but it doesn't necessarily reflect on AOPi members themselves.

There was another one about AOPi where the person said that KA refused to have a social with them because they had POC new members and as a result AOPi refused to have any social functions with them. I feel like that says much more about what AOPi members are like.

I’m not a pi phi but I know for a fact that they have a safe house. It’s the most poc I’ve seen other than dphie in Milledge. They have their own “niche” and keep each other up.

Yeah I’d say it’s AXO, Chi O, DG, Pi Phi, Gamma Phi? Maybe a few other i’m not sure of but those are at least the most welcoming to POC in my eyes.

AXO, DG, and Pi Phi have always stood out to me for genuinely welcoming POC and just being good people in general.
