At the school where I currently advise, one of the NIC groups has a little sister group that was very active. They have meetings, the girls do all kinds of things for the guys, etc. The guys actively recruit the women.
Here is where it gets frustrating......the guys tell the girls NOT to join sororities because their group is free and they can get more benefits from them! I actually had a conversation with the guy who is basically the chapter liason to the little sisters and he is 110% convinced that what he can offer these girls is more valuable then anything sororities can give them.
He reaps the benefits of his fraternity. Why would he think that a woman could not reap benefits from a sorority???? Needless to say this is an ongoing frustration with this NIC group!!!! The worst part about it... Our NPC and the NIC have historical (national) roots together, yet we have to compete with THEM for new members. What's up with that!?!?!
