Good luck!

Agree with keeping GLO on the resume (for jobs - I have no experience with the grad-school resume), but think long and hard about whether to name it or whether simply to state "University" chapter of a national sorority.

You may be asked about it at the interview, but you want to avoid the lowly HR clerk who thinks "XYZ - a bunch of divas" or "I'm not forwarding an XYZ; they dropped me first round" and tosses the resume.

Does it happen often? No, but it does happen, and you don't want to give any reason for yours to be in the "no" stack.
