I understand that's how it is worded, but you need to double check. IMO it's odd that you can't join if you're in a social sorority, but that you can join a social sorority after joining SPS (per your interpretation). I understand that you can still go through NPC recruitment, but isn't it worth double checking to make sure you don't negatively effect your SPS membership or step on toes?

Here's the deal. If you are wrong and did go through NPC recruitment, sororities might not be impressed that you're using loopholes. IMO you should ask someone who knows the rules backwards and forwards before you go through recruitment. If a knowledgeable member of SPS says you're correct about the rules, go for it and good luck. IMO (assuming you're in the clear) the only way in which that would effect your NPC recruitment would be if you were trying to be highly active member of two organizations as that could (and probably would) turn into a time issue. Do not take the "nontheirbusiness" attitude about SPS. That implies that you're hiding something or have a reason to hide something, which you shouldn't and don't. Speaking for myself I would find SPS membership to be a positive in a PNM.
