Several chapters are known for blatantly discriminating against women who aren't Jewish during recruitment (UT Austin's chapter prides itself on being a chapter that is 100% Jewish). While the national organization claims to "be open to all religions," the fact is they're not. They are fully aware that a chapter like UT Austin will refuse a legacy for no other reason than that the woman isn't Jewish and they haven't done anything about it.
From my own experience, no other women's Greek organization makes any sort of judgments based on a potential new member's religious beliefs during recruitment. If AEPhi want's to focus on being a Jewish organization (which, it seems like they do if they're telling chapters that they "aren't Jewish enough"), that's fine - they just need to admit it and move on (and possibly remove themselves from Panhellenic).
