With these beliefs and dreams of strong sisterhood and the advancement of feminism, the first sorority was born. Such devotion and ideologies are lost in today's sororities. Sadly, the mere power and pride that the organizations were founded on no longer exists. The most obvious of changes is in regard to philanthropy and community service. While many sorority women volunteer, there is an overwhelming lack of dedication.
Most sororities work to write a check that benefits an organization.
While this is extremely helpful and sound, there is no sense of servitude. Any sorority woman will argue that RUSH is not superficial. Any organization with selection as a basis for membership has the right to choose new members. All sororities need to recruit new members who will pay dues for the rest of their college careers. These new members will eventually move into the lovely mansion on 34th Street.
