Potential New Members

I have had this happen once before... I have been friends with a black gentleman for about a year now... I invited him to join Sigma Nu or at least go through formal rush and give Greek Life a try.

I was angered and shocked that he said that he couldn't because of the backlash that would occur from his friends!

Yes, that is his friends in traditionally black GLO's would be angry that he was considering us but not them?

Could it be that each person is entitled to make their own choices? Should we all not be just as shocked and angry that this occurs? Not trying to hijack the thread here, but it's not JUST white people trying to keep minorities out.

I see no problem with race because Florida Tech is so diverse. As for the sexuality, it's not a big deal. It's the person's decision so I don't see why the organization should make it an issue.

we have sisters of all different backgrounds and it doesn't seem to be a issue at all. african american, puerto rican, caucasian whatever it doesn't really make a difference we are sisters. our sisterhood is about respect and loving one another. i believe we should respect not only our sisters but everyone no matter what their skin color or ethnic background. and i would think it would be something a sisterhood would want to promote.
