Just as you are doing with service organizations.
I think that D9 Greeks get stuff twisted up at times thinking that everyone joins, or wants to join another organization because they want more of what D9 Greeks do/have.
Sometimes organizations have a history, within a career or profession, that many D9 Greeks refuse to investigate because they feel that they have hit the pinnacle of Greekdom.
The only real problem that I have with organizations outside of the NPHC, that are NOT historically recognized as having a sense of "Social Greek Life", is when they begin to "adopt" traditions indicative of D9 organizations on a chapter by chapter basis, rather than something that is recognized and acknowledged by a majority of the body or their headquarters.

You know, that is a good point I can acknowledge that. However, it was my understanding that greek orgs outside of the D9 that are about more than "service" typically have something relating to that in their titles. For example there are greek orgs that are considered "professional music frats, professional business frat, legal frat, etc." If it is termed a "service frat" that is all that one can infer in terms of its purpose.
