Just so everyone will know there is another agricultural oriented sorority. Ceres International Women's Fraternity was founded at the 1984 FarmHouse fraternity conclave. It (yes I'm biased) is great having access to almost a hundred years worth of FarmHouse alumni, experience, and lots of big brothers. We are also a prof and social organization so we have the best of both worlds. I could go on but I just wanted to inform.
Thanks

Well, I'm coming from a biased view, but we definitely have lots of women in traditionally male fields! My sorority, Sigma Alpha, was formed to promote women in agriculture. Thus, we have a very high percentage of women in what you might classify as technical majors: agricultural engineering, animal science, plant & soil science, horticulture, pre-vet, forestry, biology, landscape architecture, etc. The remaining members are mostly agricultural economics, agricultural communications, agricultural education, etc. majors (mostly B.S. degrees but somewhat fewer "technical" courses). I would say that we also attract a fair number of women to Greek life who otherwise might shy away from it.
If anyone is interested in learning more, we're at the address below.
