Whether people like it or not, fraternities and sororities are private organizations that do have the right to pick and choose their members -- much like country clubs.

Often times women in sororities choose their new members based on common interests, beliefs, and social circles -- if a person has a "standards issue" that clashes with the purpose or the values of a sorority (such as raising a child out of wedlock) they have a right to deny her membership. And if a person flat out lies about that "standards issue", then they probably shouldn't be considered for membership regardless of the circumstances.

I don't make the rules, I'm just telling you how it is.

On a practical note, many chapters require their members to live in the house for at least a year -- how are you supposed to do that with a child? Let's be practical people!!!
