You are so right, AEPhi alum. SDT began as a "Jewish" sorority in 1917 because the other sororities at Cornell at that time would not or could not pledge Jews. Our sorority is open to all undergrad women of good character, who are looking for a group that stresses quality, fellowship, good grades and service to the campus and community. If you were to read the list of SDT members and alums, there is quite a diverse mix, of which I am very proud.
I have a close Jewish friend who is a Theta. She was a legacy to AEPhi through her mother and to SDT through her sister. Both chapters were on her campus but she felt more comfortable with the Thetas and it worked for both her and the Theta chapter.
