i'm trying really hard to be openminded, but a group founded by one person through "divine inspiration" sounds more like a cult to me...

Amen. Don't drink any kool-aid she may try to serve you.
I shouldn't be so mean. They're probably very nice people but the whole thing just doesn't sound right to me.

That's basically what I'm thinking. Yeah it's nice and all... but something's a little weird about it.

Also, under the "herstory" section of the website, it's written that the Greek letter Theta translates to an English "o"

Hence the acronym "IOH-I Owe Him" which corresponds with the greek letters of Iota Theta Eta.

Not so much.

Wow, these women should have done a better job of learning the Greek alphabet. "Θ" transliterates to a "Th" in English.

that's the REAL reason it got started...the founder had trouble learning the greek alphabet so she started a new sorority so she wouldn't have to.
that was a low blow. sorry chick with divine inspiration. please don't tell God to strike me down...
