By "respectable" I was referring to the good deeds that AKA does.  They
are primarily a service organization that sets high standards for their
members to live by.  They do things such as provide scholarships for
needy students.  They are definitely not (at least in the Boston area)
a group known to disgust anyone. (Incidentally, I have no desire to join
any Greek organization whatsoever; I simply was reacting to what I
thought was a uncalled-for remark.)
