I know that some people have been pushing these as great promo tools, but I don't dig the idea for multiple reasons.

1. Sorority members (who you've never met and who it may turn out you have no desire to spend time with) can nose around your profile.

2. As others have said, ABC may see that you joined the XYZ group and say "well ok then, forget that."

3. Some PNMs may misinterpret it and think that joining the group guarantees them a bid.

3a. Some groups make the giant mistake of listing times/locales for events and having whackadoos show up. Yes, whackadoos show up at formal rush too, but it's a little easier to contain them there if they get really nuts.

4. It usually isn't the most popular sorority on campus setting up a group like this. To be blunt, it looks desperate.

If you're having trouble getting girls interested in Greek life, think Panhellenically instead and get your school's panhel to set up a GO GREEK interest group, not a "Go XYZ" group. If your sorority is the only one with the problem, get out there and MEET PEOPLE and ask them in PERSON to come meet your sisters.

Excellent advice here!
