I'm would think that auxiliaries were very different when they were accepted as actual auxiliaries of the various organizations than they are today. And, I can't begin to understand why membership in an auxiliary would help with membership in a BGLO unless other auxiliary members were also part of the organization of preference. But, as that is a private issue of membership selection, I will see my way out.

On some campuses, it's just like networking in any other campus organizations; learning and researching along with an informal and unofficial interest group that was formed by the women themselves; or a way for some young ladies to figure out if and why they want to be in a sorority beyond the informal sisterhood of an auxilliary.

This is not membership information.

Which makes sense...so why join an auxiliary rather than a service organization or something of that sort? I don't presume that you have any clue why someone would make the choice, so I'll leave it as a rhetorical question.
