I think age has a LOT to do with it. I am not really seeing this issue on the alumnae level but more on the undergraduate level. As someone said, with age comes maturity. Educating the undergrad is crucial. I have been witness to undergrad chapters of XYZ who don't support ABC because of "insert negative stereotype". Its ridiculous. I've even seen some be rude to each other. While they are fueling a rivalry, there are people in the community who could be benefitting from their joint efforts.jmho.
