The only requirement in my sorority is that everyone be respectful of everyone else's views. Since the organization is based on diversity, we actively recruit women of many religious (and anti-religious) backgrounds. The sorority experience, in addition to being a beautiful bonding experience, is also, in our view, meant to be a part of the larger university educational experience. To that end, we aim to attempt to promote as diverse a sisterhood as possible, so that (1) we don't turn into a "cookie-cutter" sorority, as many others inadvertently do, and (2) so that our members are prepared to deal with others who may not be anything at all like themselves once they are out in the "real world." It has worked out well for us, and it never ceases to surprise me how well people of different races, ethnicities, religions, sexual orientations, majors, and personalities can get along in close quarters.
