A Note to Applicants about the "Preppy Northeast, LACs, and Privates"

<p>“I know that being black fraternities, all are going to rub shoulders, but most should and will acknowledge that as the first black greek organization, historically, Alpha Phi Alpha has always been at the forefront being the first to open up wings in almost every aspect of government (from DuBois & Douglass, to forming or leading most every major civil rights organization (except C.O.R.E.) to Brown vs. Board of Education, to being elected first officials in Congress and the Senate, to being the first black to become tenured department heads at our top universities.</p>

<p>We can argue about today but really it is beating a dead horse to disagree that Alpha Phi Alpha paved the way for where black men and all black greek organizations are today.”</p>

<p>-I could, of course, display a list of members and first that the other frats have and make arguments to the contrary. However, for the purpose of this thread, I shall do neither. </p>

<p>Alpha Phi Alpha is the best thing to happen to Black men since the end of slavery. There. :rolleyes:</p>

<p>No, that would be Jesse Jackson, your great Omega :)</p>

<p>Why don't you handle your discussion of Black Greek life by using PMs. You have essentially killed the main discussion.</p>

<p>If I told my parents is that Hilary Clinton is a Wellesley Girl it would be the last place they would want me going. lol.</p>

<p>Hillary Clinton is a Wellesley woman not a Wellesley girl.</p>

<p>Feel free to e-mail me (<a href="mailto:ksorenso@wellesley.edu">ksorenso@wellesley.edu</a>), regarding questions about Wellesley, elephant4life (and others!). I know people who LOVE Wellesley and people who HATE Wellesley. I'm probably in the middle and can give you a good perspective.</p>
