I suicided

[IndianaSigKap]

On my campus, girls often suicided for religious preferences. We only attended two chapters for preference. If a Jewish girl had only SDT or AEPhi and another chapter for preference, sometimes she might choose to ISP the traditionally Jewish chapter. A girl in my dorm had a name that might be seen as a traditionally Jewish last name, she was very Catholic. At preference she had AGD and SDT, she ISPed AGD. Luckily, it worked out. So not every girl who ISPs does so for "superficial" reasons based on social standing.

That's an excellent point. Especially if "Molly Potential Member" for example strongly identifies with her religion and culture, I could certainly see a valid reason for wanting to ISP. If "Molly Potential Member" thinks as the example you gave they would fit in with the ideals with a more traditionally Jewish chapter.

Unfortunately those who ISP, it doesn't always work out, and they have to be willing to accept that when making the decision to ISP. Its all a part of life, sometimes you win, sometimes you lose.
