ZTA from C of C-
Yeah, we kinda have the same sort of deal here... I know we hang out with the Pi Kapps a lot, and usually try to have a mixer per semester with them... also, one of our sisters just got married to a Pi Kapp (and my real sister is married to a Pi Kapp) so there are a lot of strong ties, there...
However, I don't consider them our brother fraternity, either, b/c there's that lack of the historical bonds. There are a couple of sororities and fraternities that hang out a lot together here, too... the Southern Triad (ATO.KA.SAE) and Southern Belles (Tri-Delt.ZTA.KD) in particular, but I don't think they'd consider themselves brother/sister fraternities/sororities, either.
I don't know if it's just because of what I was taught during my new member period, but I think that TRUE brother/sister organizations have strong ties (like Phi Delt, Beta Theta Pi, and Sigma Chi have, or like DG and Phi Delt have) that will never be broken no matter who hangs out with whom.
