We don't, that's it.
Yes, but campus religious organizations also will not keep out people not of their faith. greek orginzations are treated differently, because they are run differently. they are exclusinary by nature. By requiring it to be part of an umbrella, they are really recognizing the umbrella organization. By doing so, they are recognizing a group that theroetically any male student can be a member of. Perfect example of the difference between IFC and individual organization is the mutually exclusive nature of them.
