Theta Best Case Scenario
by: HonestThis might be the best thing to happen to theta. If they go underground and operate without nationals oversight, they can recruit the best girls in the fall (before spring rush), throw parties with literally no rules, become a social organization with no dumb chapter requirements, and become even more of a powerhouse. We all know sororities are thinly veiled social organizations parading around as philanthropic sisterhoods. The other "top" houses better watch out if they think Theta is disappearing or going down without a fight. This is honestly a level up.

I do wonder if “social clubs” will become the thing in the future. Rho at UT comes to mind. No oversight from “woke” nationals, whether that’s good or bad depends on the group. Some oversight can be helpful. Heard rho was applying to reaffiliate with sae, not sure if that is true.

So much wrong with this. First of all: Sororities aren't thinly veiled social organizations, they ARE social organizations. They have ALWAYS been social organizations based on close friendships (sisterhood) and membership for life, founded as such, and don't say different. Philanthropy is a worthy side gig, along with leadership, campus involvement, and networking opportunities, but none of that stuff means a thing without the friendships and fun events. That's why they have houses to live together and be together. A sorority is a home away from home. Second: Membership in a national sorority means something and is a huge part of the appeal. You can slap some letters together and recruit members all you want to throw parties, but that's not really what girls need or want. They go to frats for that for free. There would be no recognition, no prestige, no nice house, no sorority lifestyle, and parents certainly wouldn't pay for it like they do for sorority membership. Any girl who 'joined' one in fall would be blacklisted from all the legitimate sororities when they change their minds and want a real sorority.

If there is too much of an effort by the Thetas still left on campus to keep acting like an "underground sorority" you might see Theta nationals go beyond the two year period so that all of the current girls graduate or transfer and not be a distraction from the reorganized chapter.

With enough money and connections, this could be the way of the future for the people that just want to join these orgs for social reasons. We know most people aren't rushing for national alumni connections or philanthropy opportunities anymore
