Lil' Sis's

I am a Lil Sis of a local frat down at my college. Also my girls have a lil bro program, but we are also local too.

I agree with BlueAngel. Some little sister programs were wonderful and women made lifetime bonds....some were just kind of there...some were full of power struggles and made the Greek system look horrible...some were only there for the men and parties. Kind of like, umm, sorority chapters.

As far as little sisters also pledging a sorority, on my campus some of the LS groups were allowed to and some were not. They knew that when they pledged the LS group and that was their decision. I know that there were some women who disaffiliated from their sororities to be little sisters, and vice versa.

Thanks, TStevens for your clarification. I realize this is a "hot button" issue, and I appreciate and understand your point. I just find it very unfortunate that our overly-litigious society can ruin such a good program.

I would think that even without a Little Sister organization, an individual who tried hard enough could sue and perhaps win the case against single sex Greek organizations. That wouldn't necessarily mean the demise of GLOs, although it would force a restructure. They would be forced to move off-campus and go completely private.

I hope that doesn't happen, but it may with OR without Little Sister organizations.

Cant remember if it was about the same time that some schools were trying to intergrate He/Shes into GLOs, but LXA did away with the Cresent Girls, our little Sisters. They had Pins and everything. It was a pretty big deal and had Girls from all GLOs and non GLOs.

A the legality of it all.

Ah, the good old days were when things were much simplier. Without hazing though!

A little off the current topic but isn't Pi Nu Epsilon a little sister organization of Theta Gamma? My roomate was a part of Pi Nu and I remember her having big brothers and little brothers

edited to say : not the music fraternity Pi Nu Epsilon
