I did some Google sleuthing, and it turns out that one is a Tri Delta, three are DGs, and one is a KD. I so was hoping there wouldn't be one.

So disappointing. Why can't I just make everyone behave the way I want them to?

How are the American girls "5 of the finest sorority girls" if they are also founding members of this UK organization?
FAIL.

Sorry to doublepost, but could any of the girls on the show be asked to resign their membership in their NPC glo if they do something unflattering while filming?

If their chapter was OK with them doing the show to begin with, they probably won't terminate them. Terminations generally start at the chapter level. For an individual's termination to start and end with the national office would probably make a WAY bigger deal of the situation than it deserve and give more attention to the show. No group is stupid enough to do that.
That being said, that chapter will most likely be watched like hawks for a long time if they do choose not to dissasociate themselves with the sister in question.

Interesting
It's looks a bit like Ladette to Lady but for a sorority
eta: re: having their membership terminated - they are not really representing their own sorority, are they? They're representing Sigma Gamma. It's probably like setting up a local after becoming an alumni - weird, but not termination worthy

"This is a higher standard; this is a sorority". Maybe I'm crazy but I feel as if (what appears to be) forcing them to eat copious amounts of food/drink is *not* having a higher standard. Just awkward.

Oh. Wow. Is part of the competition to try to embody as many of the negative stereotypes of sorority women as possible along with committing the most risk management violations?
And those robes with the hoods they had one in one scene, beyond creepy. I would have run for the exit had the actives shown up in those at my initiation.

Being where I am and having as many British friends as I do, I was ASTOUNDED to learn how much they drink on an everyday basis. I have friends who will not eat at a restaurant that doesn't serve alcohol, full stop (as they say). And yes, there would be no such thing as an alcohol-free party, or dry sorority house. They would absolutely not accept membership in a sorority that imposed any sort of alcohol rules.
But from what little I saw of this, they seem to really focus on the British women being lazy slobs which I find perplexing. I wonder how many completely lovely girls they had to film to find the fried egg chick. Of course, these girls are not stupid - they know the rules of reality TV - and horrifying dress and conversation is one sure way to get yourself on TV.
