Our school dictates that our main advisor HAS to be a faculty or administration member. Whether they are a sister/brother or not is irrelevant in the eyes of the school. The problem is a lot of them are, or were, mainly a name on a piece of paper - and of course if they're not members they can't participate in rush, ritual etc. A couple groups are lucky enough to have alums on staff, but for the most part they don't.

We of course can have advisors for recruitment, membership etc that are sisters but the school doesn't recognize them.
