Holy fricking frick! Where do you people come from? Seriously.

Let me break it down for you Adolph:

1. Black frats and sororities were founded out of necessity. They weren't allowed in the "white" ones.
2. Same for the historically black colleges.
3. Anyone can join a black frat, sorority, or historically black college. Want proof? Turn on the MEAC baseball tournament this year. Most of the teams are white because black kids don't play baseball.

The sororities in question WANTED to let the black girl in and were told by alumna and University advisors that they couldn't. This story broke because the sororities told the press.

The sororities are "white" because the racist, pieces of shite that run them have kept them that way. Discrimination at a PUBLIC university. That's a violation of state, federal, and the Panhellenic laws.

Now, is there some reverse discrimination that goes on in the black community? Absolutely. However, that's not justification.

True. But why have they continued to stay largely segregated? Even here in Louisville it's very rare to see a white girl in a black sorority. And I know girls who have rushed who were denied a bid because they weren't "black enough". Where's the outage in that?

That said, my bigger question is did they go to the University itself first? The admin seem supportive of the girls (now I'll admit this could just be outwardly to avoid controversy). I'd honestly like to know if they did or did they just jump to the "lets get Jesse here" business.

Its not a violation of law because sororities are private institutions seperate from the public university. Its a social club which has criteria to get accepted.. These exist nationwide. I'd love to be a member of Bohemian Grove but I can't yet I'm not butthurt about it. There are social clubs for red haired people, I have brown hair so I couldn't get in. Its a fact of life that you aren't accepted everywhere and this goes for everyone. This is just another example of black people screaming racism because their massive inferiority complex leads to extreme butthurt anytime they don't get exactly what they want. Tough fricking shite
