They can call it whatever the hell they want. The plain truth is that Harvard drove the established Greek system out of Harvard, so that the students have no one to oversee or answer to other than Harvard.
That article - as well as the recent Teen Vogue article applauding Theta’s first gender neutral article- are so full of misinformation it’s not even funny. Especially when Theta’s nationals released a statement saying they fought the administration until the end and will continue to champion sororities as important womens organizations.


The unfortunate thing is that none of this is about Harvard’s Greek system. It’s about the administration’s hatred of the elite men’s finals clubs and the only way to shut those down was to pass this assenine policy to eliminate all single-sex organizations. The Greeks are just collateral damage in a decades long fight.
