In the six years I've known this chapter, they have had a pregnant sister and 41 year old sister and lesbian sisters--they are really good at looking at the heart of someone, whereas, as an advisor, I tend to think more about the group's image and the financial bottom line. I am proud of them when they make such decisions despite what other people may think--and they will defend those decisions to the end by supporting their sisters and challenging those who do comment. They epitomize sisterhood to me.
They are at a southern school which is small and "non-competitive". Based on what I am reading here, I guess that gives them a luxury others may not have.
I see nothing wrong with GLOs accepting moms, but I do think that moms may have to be willing to accept that they are entering the sorority's world, and not the sorority trying to fit their world.

Then again, my campus was a non-traditional, commuter one. I don't think it would work down South or at a traditional campus.
My chapter also (and I know this is a bit off topic but seeing as how it was mentioned) never had a problem taking girls who were bi or lesbian, where a lot of groups would have been scared to take them.
I love my sisters for not being afraid and giving everyone a fair change.

Yeah, I didn't think this would be much of a problem in NPC sororties outside the south.
