Thought you might be interested in this article, which deals with
Senator Trent Lott's position back in the days when Sigma Nu Fraternity
was voting on whether to remain all-white or admit African-Americans.
Like you thought APO was racially divided! Anyway, as it states in the
article though, Sigma Nu eventually did decide to "get over it" and
admit African-Americans in the long run... Although APO's case is really
an entirely different animal altogether,... I did find it interesting to
note, however, that the Sigma Nu vote on admitting African-Americans
took place in a, "New Orleans Hotel." (go figure),...
