Each of the frats on my campus still names a "Sweetheart" each year (and my chapter still has an "Anchorman"). But even by the time I graduated in the mid-80's, most of the frats had done away with their "little sister" groups. Only the FIJI's (Sisters of the Black Diamond) and the SAE's still had them. The Alpha Phi's still had a group of "Ivy Men" when I started my Freshman year, but they had narrowed it down to only one by the time I graduated. Too much time and effort required, both for the women and for the fraternity chapters.
