Social media ftw.

Well, when their website says things along the lines of "XYZ has the highest required GPA and we reward those sisters who get a 4.0" I think it's safe to say they value scholarship or "ABC hosts several events to support their philanthropy and participates in other clubs's philanthropies" I think it's safe to say they value philanthropy.

I'm not already ranking the sororities based on their websites. Haven't you ever researched a car before you bought it and then went to the dealership to test drive it? It's kind of like that. I'm not going to just buy the car because the website says it's the best on the market.

No, it probably means their national organization tells them to do it. As far as participating in other groups' philanthropies, on some campi that is a social "must" that has zero to do with caring about the charity.

Some groups have their websites more strictly policed than others. Don't be surprised if the group who has zero party pictures on their page are the ones doing lines of coke off the charter.

Websites tell nothing. Period. Maybe they did back in the day when no one knew what they were doing on the internet, but not anymore.
