In a perfect world, the campus advisor the OP spoke to would have alerted her to a potential problem, but those campus advisors aren't always up to speed on every GLO policy. (The happy ending is that she wound up as a founding mother of a new OPA chapter on her campus.)

Even if there is no policy against a married woman holding active status, I agree with the OP that playing down this important lifelong commitment is essentially a lie of omission. To find the sisterhood relationship that is right for you, those potential sisters need to know the real you, including the joy you find in your marriage.
