I consider GLOs secret societies. This is a definition from dictionary.com:

"secret society 
an organization, as a fraternal society, the members of which take secret initiation oaths, share secret passwords and rites, and are bound to assist each other."

Unless you're in Delta Upsilon or other GLOs that don't keep anything secret.. umm you're in a secret society.

I understood what you meant and I already know what the dictionaries say.

I'm sure there are some GLO members, especially some NPHCers, who understand where my distinction is coming from.
