^^^^ Pardon the crash -- I know this is about sorority recruitment -- but just to try to think this through a little.

GammaDelt says that they are required to have a "special interest." Seems to me this isn't necessarily as restrictive as being limited to certain majors. I'm a member of the all-male fraternity with a chapter on her campus. (I won't go into the "club" discussion, but I will say that our Delta chapter at her school was founded in 1901 and is our oldest continually active chapter. I'm guessing, then, that they have a keen sense of our traditions as well as our probationary member and initiation requirements.)

We really do only require an interest; there's no requirement that one be a music major. (At least there's not one nationally; I suppose there could be a chapter practice of only initiating music majors or minors.) I've known of chapters with no music majors. So it seems like it might at least be worth exploring whether service would be a sufficient interest, especially if not being recognized hinders their recruitment.
