A Magical Recruitment Story

[BlueCarnation]

This is so interesting. At my alma mater and the school I work at, the focus for many young women is also on joining a house where their religion is appreciated and supported. But in these cases, we're talking about Judaism, not Christianity. There are "traditionally Jewish" sororities, but there are more Jewish women going through recruitment than can join those houses, so non-Jewish sororities are "becoming Jewish." (Sorry for all the quotes). I think part of the reason for joining a sorority is to find a place where you have sisters who support you, and if religion is an important part of your life, then of course you'd want to be somewhere where you have others who support that.
