Sounds trite but imitation is the sincerest form of flattery so I can see how a group would want to embody the colors etc to impress an NPC group. But as someone said, some groups will not consider some types of campuses - we have stellar women come of our SCSU but some NPCs are focusing on larger schools with other benefits/alum connections etc.

I think scsugirl should meet the dphie girls and see they are the real deal and don't haze - give up some starbucks and use your birthday $ for dues. You will not be sorry. A couple of dollars now translates into a lifetime of friends - friends who will not haze you today and call you friend tomorrow.

Good luck.
