christians at ua

I'm coming to UA next year and I was wondering how active sororities are about their faith? Like do they do things at the house involved with christianity, are there bible studies going on, etc..? If yes, would that be a good thing or bad thing to mention I'm interested in during rush?

UA's Greek life has a very big demographic of open Christians. Every single sorority here has very religious girls and every single sorority here does have bible studies. Personally, I'm Catholic and I'm in one of the 16 NPC sororities and I feel very comfortable with expressing my faith in my sorority. My sorority has bible studies for an hour each two days of the week (you go to one depending on your schedule) and it meets every week. Besides bible studies there isn't really any other major events that sororities put on that are religious based. Since there is such a large amount of girls I think most sororities don't want to make anyone feel excluded by condoning one certain religion.

Personally in my sorority we're told not to bring up religion in conversations during rush first, but if the PNM brings it up then it's fine to talk about. I'd say unless you were involved in your church or had any kind of extra curricular activities that involved religion then don't bring it up. You won't be dropped necessarily but it's just PC to not talk about religion in formal conversations.

There are committed Christians in every sorority, even the stereotypically wild houses. AXO and Alpha Gam are the best-known for having Christian members, though. Alpha Gam also has (I think) a joint Bible study with KD and DDD.

Bama also has a chapter of Alpha Delta Chi, the national Christian sorority.
