Fine, you don't have to be a soror, but my husband would be very upset to find he was married 25 years to a frater!
On campuses it's called the "Greek Community" but that doesn't seem quite appropriate.
The so-called queer community uses initials when they need to be PC, they are GLBT. But the only initial I can think of for us'n's would be R.
So let's see... hm... what shall we call our bonds of siblinghood? Family? Quakers use "Friends" which is a gentle and sweet inclusion, but again doesn't seem quite appropos to the ref situation.
If we consider ourselves zebras we could call our groups "herds". Let's try that out...
Hey, SPRef, welcome to the herd!
Not bad. Not bad at all.
