It's the fact that they are calling themselves "service/social sororities" and partying more than the actual "social" NPC groups. They're using the "service" appendage to try and get around NPC rules when they rush and operate exactly like NPC groups - except they aren't bound by alcohol or rushing rules. It would be the same deal if Gamma Sigma Sigma or Omega Phi Alpha (both national service sororities) were putting a higher priority on socializing than service, which is supposed to be their reason for existing.

Piggying back on Shelia's statement...
when I rushed one of the social/service sororities in Fall 2003, they told us that they scheduled socials Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday, and occasionally on Wednesday. We HAD to attend at least 50% of the socials and attendance at all was encouraged.
I was attracted to the community service part but there was nothing there really about community service. It seemed more of a group of girls who socialized with fraternities, did the occasional service project, and participated in THON.
