And so on.

I would be VERY surprised if the official membership process of most (In the report in The Crimson this point was made) NPCs doesn't exclude alumnae involvement in the actual voting process (collecting ballots - good. Filling out a ballot - bad). Those who DO might wish to reconsider. Recs are when alumnae get their voice, as far as I am concerned. The members in the chapter are the ones who will live with this woman as a sister for the next few years - they are the only ones who should vote.

NONE of the NPCs allow racial discrimination in the official membership process. The problem is apparently some Bama chapters are NOT in line with NPC official national standards. I suspect it is rogue alumnae who have interfered and taken advantage of their position and the fact that collegians may be afraid to contradict them, or may not know that they are overstepping their positions. The brave sisters who are bringing this to light are, it is to be hoped, going to force HQs to step in and rectify the situation.
