No, but for example, I'm 24 and SINGLE and I have a hard time finding things in common with college freshmen. I can't imagine being active in a sorority again with 18 year olds.

Something else to consider:

Alot of times, social events in sororities involve theme parties/mixers with fraternities. Is this something you and your husband feel comfortable with?

Also, there may be weekend retreats where you might need to be away from home for a couple days. Not every married couple is cool with that, and you don't want to be "that annoying married girl who spent all of retreat talking to/texting her hubby."

In general, just ask yourself if you really can relate to girls in that age range who most likely are not married. Alot of freshmen and sophs are away from home for the first time and partying, meeting new guys, talking about said guys, etc. You are at a different place than they are.

If you even think you'll spend most of your time saying "UGH OMG these girls are sooooo immature!!!" you may want to re-think this a little.
