Accepted Answer

Question 7

What is the difference between traditional Panhellenic Sororities and Multicultural Sororities?

Accepted Answer

The main difference is the focus on culture and diversity. As a multicultural organization, Delta Phi Omega believes in the celebration of different cultures--racial, ethnic, or religious. Another difference is the size of our organizations. Multicultural organizations tend to have smaller chapters/charters compared to Panhellenic organizations. Delta Phi Omega believes that sisterhood bonds are stronger and shared with everyone as a result of the size of the sisterhood. Our chapters/charters range from 5 – 45 members at any given time. Lastly, our dues are much less since, majorly speaking, multicultural organizations do not carry the financial burden of maintaining privately-owned sorority houses and other large expenses that come with large membership numbers.
