why are northerners and minorities so worried for?

by: Well mannered

I always see on this site a nervous PNM asking the Greek community here what there chances are of getting bids if they know they don't appear as a typical Greek member at UA. If you guys are so worried, why don't you just join a Greek scene that is laid back. I mean I never had to worry about this when I rushed and I wouldn't put myself in a situation where I'm scared that I won't get a bid.

Sorry we are all super nervous/excited for recruitment and want to have a realistic view of what it will be like for us personally.

idk why you would be excited for. I wouldn't try to move to the north and join a historic black chapter if you ask me. I just don't see the point people are so earnest in being part of a tradition they can't relate to.

FYI a lot of Alabama's sororities were founded in the North. Y'all didn't invent the "sorority"; y'all just perfected it. Alpha Chi, AGD, AOPi, Alpha Phi, DDD, DZ, Gamma Phi, Theta, KKG, and Pi Phi all originated in the North. Northern PNMs have family members and friends who have been a part of sororities, so they're interested too.

In a sorority founded up north, and I have to say I agree with @well mannered. We didn't invent them, but I love that you said we perfected them ;)

There's plenty of girls in sororities at Alabama who are from all over the country. sororities aren't an Alabama thing or a southern thing
And there's plenty of people who come from schools/areas with diversity and they're able to relate to people as individuals

If race is how you determine whether you relate to someone, then I feel sorry for you.

These minorities have a lot of reasons why they want to join a traditionally white sorority or fraternity. Maybe they had white parents. Maybe they came from money and always fit in better with whites. However if I was black and wanted to be greek, I would choose a school other than UA. Plain and simple.

Did the author of this post even graduate high school or are you just dumb? Because your grammar is 💩 and it’s common sense that colleges attract people from all over and everyone has their own personal reasons for wanting to join
