Obviously. I think the point, though, is that when someone asks a question like the OP, we owe it to our organizations and Greek life as a whole to do more than state the (very true) fact that membership selection is confidential. We all know that prejudice still lingers, and we all know that anyone can find pretextual reasons for not bidding someone. But if our orgs have non-discrimination policies (and don't they all now?), then let's at least stand up for our orgs and say so.
