fall recruitment for panhellenic
by: Mixed RaceI have been reading on here that Pi Phi, Kappa, and Alpha Chi are open to pledging some minority women next fall. I hadn't thought of going through recruitment because I didn't think I had a chance at a bid because I'm part white, part black, and part Cherokee. Do you all think it's worth going through? I definitely fit in with my white friends at school and have appropriate clothes, car, etc. (my dad's a surgeon and my mom's a lawyer.) What kind of chance do you think I have?

I think we're starting to be more progressive, though. On here if someone says the N word people jump on them. Also, our sororities are opening up to the possibility of African American and mixed race girls for next year. I think that's progress. I don't know about the guys. I guess they'll have to if the girls do.

If it happens America will have a much better view of you all. As an AA who attended a small private school, I know that cultural differences may result in some ignorance. However completely barring PNM's who are identical in class, intelligence, money, beauty and personality aside from the fact that they are black is insane. As far as mixers with fraternities go: they don't have to feel obligated to like or hang out with said new members. But Jesus act like gentleMAN!

I guess my question is how many non-white girls go through rush each year. accordingly, I assume no non-white girls are currently in the 16 sororities. Can someone answer that please. That would answer a lot of questions about past history and the bama Greek system. Also, what about fraternities.

Has bama even been given the chance to pledge AA girls or is this all just an assumption. And I'm not talking about that Gamma Phi Beta incident that happened decades ago because who said sororities were still afraid of the machine over an incident that happened a long time ago

The most African American women I've seen sign up for rush is 4.
No stats on fraternities - they rush and operate entirely differently.

I go out of state to another Southern university where African Americans are a part of every sorority. Not in any big numbers, of course, but one or two in every pc. You're right. It isn't a problem at all with the guys (they have AA members, too). Bama's racism isn't typical of the South. It's just another example of the overall poverty and ignorance of our citizens.
