Sororities do not "discriminate" against mothers. We do know how much time and energy it takes to live up to the commitments of a Greek organization. They did not want you to get in over your head, both time-wise and financially. Most organizations are limited in how many members we can have at any one time. We choose members that we believe can handle the requirements.

This is also the reason that the groups that you found for mothers are not active & thriving.

Dumb question, but wouldn't this one discriminate against those with no kids, since you said it would be a "moms only" sorority?
