Christianity and sorority pledges?

[CautiousSenior]

Clearly having just accepted a bid yesterday, I can't speak to personal experience in my organization, but I know during recruitment only one sorority went out of their way to say they were NOT founded on Christian principles.

So if I had to venture a guess, I'd say it's probably pretty common. Religion was a much bigger deal in the 1800's US than it is now in the 2010's US

These are questions for your new member educator. What other sororities do is their own business and has nothing to do with you.

Not trying to be mean, but you should have stopped right there. Now go enjoy your new member period!
