How many male members have there been? Our limited perception at Cal when I was there was that there had never been any men in most chapters, and that your organizational goals were focused on the support of women, but again, we didn't have a service sorority on campus when I was there.

As I said, male membership is uncommon, but allowed. The most recent copy of the bylaws I have are from 2005, and it reads that:

"Membership in this sorority shall include persons of all races and creeds who are duly enrolled in good standing, and eligible as defined by their respective accredited colleges or universities at the undergraduate or graduate level....Membership policies shall be inclusive."

Our ideals are friendship, service and equality. There is nothing that refers to "the support of women", though we are a sorority by name and foundation.

(Waiting for Gamma_Girl to come and give an official word on this...)
