I think you’re using the term “conservative” here anachronistically where it really can’t be applied. What are you trying to reference with the word? Women with traditional values regarding marriage and family? Just so you know, women in the 19th century didn’t ALL get married and start having babies in their mid teens. Some did attend college if their families could afford to send them but their choices were limited compared to today. I did some digging and discovered the first sororities were founded in 1851 and 1852 (the Adelphean Society known as Alpha Delta Pi today and the Philomathean Society today known as Phi Mu) and were known as “secret societies for women” at Wesleyan College, the first college for women in the USA which was established by Methodists in 1836 as evidence of the denomination’s concern for female education in America. Since then most Greek PHC chapters for women have evolved into organizations promoting the ideals of scholarship, sisterhood, philanthropic community involvement and leadership development - NOT political activism. There are plenty of groups on campuses nationwide devoted to political causes if that’s where your interests lie. Go find one, join it and let IT be your outlet for political activism if you are so inclined. The rhetoric and emotions involved are just too divisive for everyday Greek chapter life. You can’t alienate that many women and expect to remain successful. \n\n\n\n\n
