I'm still confused about the traditional definition of "elite". I had thought that the word "elite" was used to describe the groups that started the NPC.....but actually I had never even heard of the term "elite" until I read these posts so I really have no idea.

If "elite" means having the strongest nationals, what is this based on? Is it number of total initiates?...number of living initiates?....number of total chapters?...number of active chapters? number of alumnae groups? sorority age? leadership in NPC?

For example, some sororites have billions of chapters but I wouldn't consider them strong nationally. And some sororites have lesser chapters but are VERY strong nationally like KKG and KAT.

Also, what is a PMN?

As for ADPi, I don't think we're considered one of the "elite", but here are our stats:
130-something active chapters
over 170,000 total initiated

My KKG/KAT friends gave me their stats and I'm pretty sure they are considered "elite":

KKG
over 186,000 total initiated
128 active chapters

KAT
over 170,000 total initiated
123 active chapters
