Sororities Delay Vote on Inclusion of Nonbinary Members

Sororities Delay Vote on Inclusion of Nonbinary Members By   Leaders of national sororities delayed a vote last week on whether to allow their organizations to change their definitions of “women” in order to be more inclusive of nonbinary members, according to a statement from Dani Weatherford, CEO of the National Panhellenic Conference, an umbrella organization that governs the policies and practices of 26 national and international sororities.
