The are several Women that I know that belong to Aux Groups. From what I know, they were told the only difference between an Aux and a Sororoity was the 1 letter compared to the 3, they bonded with the sisterhood, and they have done their Community Service. Due to them not knowing the difference between an Aux and a Sorority they choose the Aux. Either, because Aux were well known on campus, or whatever other reasons. I feel they should have done more research before making their decision because, now that they have learned more about Sororities and Aux they want to go on pledge a Sorority.
Most of the Sororities at their Campuses are giving them a lot of flack about the whole issue, which in my opinion really shouldn't be the case. They were ignorant about the Aux and Sorority issue but now they have seen the light I don't understand what the big problem is.

my question is why would anyone affiliate themselves with a group of people without first finding out what their goals and values are? additionally, why wouldn't they consider any drawback that membership would entail? before, i made the decision to actively pursue Delta, I made sure that knew as much as i could about the organization before making my interest known and making any commitment.
i think sometimes we try to put the best possible spin on bad situations. lots of sweethearts have enjoyed their experience, but, there are also those who regret it.
i have said before that i find it very telling that very few fraternity members will defend their auxillaries or even discuss them. the women seen to be out there on their own when they are questioned about their validity or purpose.
