I live in an area where there are an abundance of Catholic founded colleges and universities. None of these institutions support Greek Letter Organizations. Many even state on their websites under "campus organizations" that they do not support Greek organizations because of the exclusivity of the nature of the groups. I was wondering if this is consistent with all Catholic Institutions or if it is just the geographical area. Does anyone here attend a Catholic founded university that is in a GLO? I know that other denominational based universities support GLO's such as Methodist (That's the only one that I know of actually). Does anyone have any insight into this topic?
I go to a Catholic founded college and Greeks are not recognized although they exist. They are there because at one point they were recognized and at some point through the years, the recognition was revoked. Why? who knows, exclusiveness, hazing, rivalry...I have heard all of it but the truth
