HOWEVER, particularly during my last two years, I saw how negative it could be, especially the competition to be named a Little Sister to the most elite fraternities on campus. One fraternity, in particular, was particularly cruel in the their process (i.e. announcing the new Little Sisters with all the girls competing for spots present at a dance...so they had to hang around for the rest of the night when they didn't get it in.)
We used to have a few weeknight "exchanges" just with other sororities (...no boys allowed) each semester that were very informal ("Hat Party with the DG's!" "Pizza Night wit ADPi") where everyone sat around and just chatted. Because they counted for participation points, we got good turn out, and because there was free food, the out of house girls (...including me my senior year) tended to swing by.

What I'm talking about is not what you're talking about - not the organized Little Sister groups. I'm talking about where Freddy Fraternity asks Patti Pledge to be his "little sister." Freddy's fraternity and Patti's sorority have nothing really to do with it - it doesn't align them in any way. Freddy's brothers may have "little sisters" from totally different sororities.
