diversity
by: CourtneyI am a KD alum who just moved to Statesboro and am appalled, to say the very least, that racism and bigotry is so openly allowed to exist and be acknowledged within this greek system. Can any of you, reasonably and rationally,explain to me why - in the year 20 freaking 14 - blacks and other ethic backgrounds aren't "allowed" to join the "white" sororities & frats on campus?? And I have to think that it is definitely the case that this is happening because I look on KD's facebook page and all I see are little white girls. No diversity whatsoever. And it's the same on every other sorority page except for DPhiE. I mean, I've always known how backwards, slow, and ignorant most of Statesboro is to change and progression but this has to be an all new low. I've always been a proud KD. I've always worn my letters proudly and every chapter I've ever been to across the U.S. has been full of diverse, beautiful women; white, black, mexican, hispanic, oritental - all women. But here? It's shameful. I'm embarrassed to say here, in Statesboro, that I'm a KD. Some of the BEST members I've ever known in KD have been anything but white women. Ladies, you really need to take a long hard look at what you're doing and if you even care - at all - I mean, really CARE about what KD is and is supposed to be and stand for, then you will rethink how you're doing your recruitment for the future. Our founders envisioned more than this. They envisioned an organization for ALL women. Shameful.

I love this. I have the up most respect for you. I totally agree that although it may not be abrupt rascism, there are some things that need to seriously change within the Greek community. I plan on rushing in the spring or fall and I am mixed and honestly through research and looking into each sorority KDs are my #1 going in! I feel that all the morals and values should be actively practiced in all aspects of the sisterhood, including recruitment.

Would a National Pan-Hellenic sorority ever initiate a white member? Absolutely not. Here "in the year 20 freaking 14", all Panhellenic sororities have blossomed with diversity. If you have a legitimate problem, maybe your should attend chapter or make a call to nationals instead of ranting on a website notorious for starting drama. That's childish, and if you even really are a KD alum, it reflects badly on you and your sorority. There are many wonderful, diverse women in my historically southern sorority at my very conservative, southern school. I see no difference between them and the rest of my sorority. We all love each other because we are sisters.

this orginal post was not done by a KD. If this had been a KD they would HAVE ALREADY KNOWN THAT KD did offer several pledges to women of color. You are so stupid I wonder how your body remembers to breathe. Dont use other organizations to put up a topic like this. Its not only not fair but you are not accurate AT ALL. you probably got cut by KD truth be told. This is not the way you improve a greek system. Your just drama
