Just as an FYI, some NPC GLOs have rules against being a "little sister".

ALL NPCs have rules against being a little sister.

I thought so, but didn't want to assume . . .

It jeopordizes our single-sex status, and therefore is a big no-no (even unofficially).

A young lady can go through the whole "little sister" process if she wants.

It's when she labels herself as a member of XYZ Sorority and AB Fraternity Little Sister that HQs don't like...even if it's unofficial.

I am not in favor of these "big bro/lil sis" or vice-versa arrangements. I don't see what purpose it serves to have a "big" or "lil" who is not a member of your own organization. From what I have observed, these "big bro/lil sis" situations usually lead to nothing but drama for a chapter.

I'm not sure if it's "forbidden" or "strongly discouraged" by all of the groups. Obviously, "strongly discouraged" means you still can do it. Our policy wording says we "will decline" to join them.

At any rate, it's far more of a problem for the fraternity to have them than for sorority members to join them. I mean - there are chapters where a lot of the members are in (example) Tau Beta Sigma or Alpha Phi Omega. That doesn't make the sorority chapter a "satellite" of either org. If the fraternity's taking on little sisters and their nationals said they shouldn't, that's their problem and can get their chapter in trouble. I don't think one girl being an unofficial little sister would do the same to her sorority.

FWIW, when offical little sis programs existed, some of them had rules against being in an NPC group or any sorority.
