The point is that a physical building does not make a group a sorority. Sisterhood, and all the things that go along with it, make it so. We understand the differences between campuses, but just because you think these chapters are "more like clubs," doesn't mean that they are.

In some cases, they may have a stronger chapter and sisterhood than the housed sororities.

(sorry I'm just jumping into this convo.. I've been on vacation and I'm trying to catch up! )
