If you walk into Wal-Mart, steal a digital camera, and never get caught, is it ok?
I know that not every sorority is the same. But working on the premise that they all involve, at some point before or during the initiation process, a promise to uphold certain values and to remain loyal to that sorority, pledging another after making that promise shows that it didn't mean much in the first place, and makes it likely it won't mean much the second time around, either. It's also dishonest.
Assuming you'll spend years at your new school in the age of facebook, myspace, and messageboards like these and never get found out isn't smart. And when you do get caught you will lose membership in BOTH organizations. Your friends from both organizations very well might dislike you for lying to both of them.
I am in a different sorority than any other member of my family, including many female cousins, my grandmothers, mother, aunts, sister-in-laws, etc. I am the
only XYZ, though seven of those female family members, including my mother, are in the same sorority. And we still connect because we are all greek, and there are many experiences in greek life that are fairly universal. I enjoy being in a different sorority than my mother. I have my own world, but we have common ground in that we're both greek. Find a different way to get involved on your campus. There are plenty of organizations besides GLO's that are fun and useful. Habitat for Humanity, honor societies, service organizations, clubs in your major, intramurals...you can find something, I'm sure of it.
