i'm writing in response to the post about the elon NPC sorority that was deemed the "christian sorority." alpha chi omega is not a christian sorority, but we do have one on elon's campus, it is sigma alpha omega. they do not participate in NPC recruitment, while alpha chi omega does participate. alpha chi omega does not punish their members for participating in religious activities, in fact, they support it. we do not read bible verses in our rounds of recruitment, however, some sisters are very religious. some of our founding sisters are jewish, and obviously they wouldn't be here if we were a christian sorority.
also, as i was a founding sister, i can verify that we were not struggling to maintain 55 sisters. we founded with 87 sisters in the fall of 2001, and yes, we did have a difficult year with recruitment, but we COB'd and we made quota by the next fall. the next year we had an awesome recruitment and we got amazing women...and met quota plus...
before you post anything about other organizations please make sure you have the correct facts, because it hurts us to see our organization portrayed in such a negative light. seeing as how we are both from elon, you should understand that NPC is trying to attain panhellenic spirit amongst all of the GLO's.
