I think they also have a NALFO member sorority on campus, but I'll have to ask my friend who's a Spelman alumna about that one.

The greek system there is thriving, but in a different way.
Thank you for bring up my alma mater. Just to add to what you have said....Spelman did not have on campus sororities until the 70s. Before that time Spelman's presidents felt that sororities caused division on campus and distracted from the Spelman Sisterhood. Some students did join sororities before Spelman officially recognized them, but they had to do it through other chapters in the Atlanta University Center.

BTW Sistermadly, I agree with your assessment of Spelman!
