Hi.  No...  I really doubt it.  I go to a liberal arts college with
about 3 fraternities.  This is a group that a few of us are starting
within the NFB.  We are hoping to draw members.  I have the job of
sending out the emails.  I am the outreach person.  We are hoping to
start this group, so we can do some community service projects within
and outside the NFB.
