jazing, get back in your own lane and do not speak for my sorority.

When I was an active, my chapter had plenty of non-Jewish sisters. Many of my sisters were Christians and one sister was a Hindu. I'm one of the founders of my chapter, and you know what - at the time, I was Catholic.

A woman who joins AEPhi has to understand that she's joining a sorority whose founders were Jewish and whose ideals are based on Jewish ideals. She has to be ok with that, but she does not have to be Jewish herself. I imagine the same is true for Sigma AEPi, but I'll let the Sigma AEPi members speak to that point.
