Yes, I indicated that. It was founded as a Catholic sorority, but became open to all faiths (as well as races and creeds) in 1968. It is not a "Christian" sorority. Likewise, AEPhi and SDT were founded as Jewish sororities, but they have been open to women of all faiths for many years.

To be more precise, it was a "Christian" sorority at the time of its founding, but it no longer has a religious affiliation.

I saw that you indicated that it is open to all faiths, but I also wanted to clarify that, in addition to being open to women of all faiths, TPA in itself does not have a religious affiliation. There are organizations that are open to people of all faiths while still being affiliated with a specific faith, but that is not what TPA is.
