However, according to threads in this forum, there have been plenty of women who have AI sorority shopped and been initated just fine. If you feel that AI should never be sought is a different issue from what the sorority feels on the subject. If the organization truly agreed with you, wouldn't this be a non-issue?

I'm not in a sorority, but I think the answer to your question is simple.

That's sorority business!! If some organizations decide to initiate AI's who "shopped" around, then that's their right to....but in no way should that be looked up as an "in." It doesn't happen often, and those were few lucky ladies. I'm assuming its the part of the role of "membership selection" which is PRIVATE (if i'm wrong, please let me know!! )

I tend to agree with everyone else...I don't think that AI should be publicized on a forum. I think it would be too easy for someone to just randomly come upon GC and find these other AI threads which make AI sound so easy.

It should be something that is offered...not something that is chosen.
