SERIOUSLY! I have several friends who had great experiences with Girl Scouts, but we didn't go camping or learn survival skills or anything --- they had the Mary Kay ladies come and teach us how to "properly" care for our skin!!! (We were in elementary school, and we were supposed to have a whole facial regimen? For real?) I think we may have also learned how to sew or something ...

I tend to explain this as Delta is a service-minded social sorority. OPhiA is a sometimes-social service sorority. The first priority is different. As you have stated, with Delta, the service aspect cannot be accomplished without sisterhood. With OPhiA, the sisterhood cannot be accomplished without service.
That is the best explanation of the differences that I've ever heard. Thanks!
