Okay, although I am a historian, and an anthropologist and like reading... Laws... eh... not until they apply to me. I appreciate and applaud all you have accomplished in the legal field, but it's really not that serious to research and post.

I stand corrected. But there are organizations that do not discriminate based on status as a parent... one was mentioned earlier that gladly accept mothers and uplift them, and I believe Iota Phi Theta Fraternity, Incorporated was founded by/for non-traditional male students, such as those who were re/entering college a bit older, had children, and were working or in the military.

Thanks, but no research necessary. It's just common knowledge.

I'm so confused by the OP's thread and post.

OP - Maybe you should consider joining an organization through Alumnae Initiation. Some NPC organizations (mine included) have a process by which to join as an alumna member. This a good option for women who attended a college without a Greek system, or who simply missed out on the chance.

It sounds like your options (for many, many reasons) are limited if you're thinking about joining almost any social sorority as an undergraduate member.

Service GLOs are a whole other ballgame. Check with your school's Student Life/Organizations office.

I know you meant well, but I feel the need to point this out:

AI is not for EVERY woman who for whatever reason didn't join in college.

It's also not something you can just "apply for."

It's more like an honor for certain women who have contributed to the sorority or for a woman whom the sorority feels is so worthy that they should make an exception to the normal mode of joining (collegiate recruitment) and initiate her as an alumna.

It's occurrence across the sororities is extremely rare (a handful of women per year).

It's more of an exception to the rule, not something that is available to every woman who didn't join in college.

So it's not really something that should be suggested for PNMs on GC, simply because it's not something that is for everyone.

See the AI forum if you need more info.

Dear God, no.
