I was using the term AI in its most general sense; that of a college graduate pursuing membership in a GLO. The differences between NPC and NPHC graduate/alumnae recruitment are not important to me, but your clarification may help someone else.

Actually, yes, it is. AI into an NPC chapter and graduate chapter intake into an NPHC chapter are NOT the same thing.

It's not a matter of "importance"; rather, it's about respect. Respect for other organizations and how they operate.

"Alumnae Initiation into an NPC" is not the same as pursuing an NPHC as a graduate student, in any way, shape or form.

I understand what you and 33girl are saying. Always have. And, I stand by what I wrote, with one exception, in that I made a bad word choice. It's not that the differences between AI and Graduate Intake are not important (I was trying to reply and keep an eye/ear on the maintenance man, without hovering like a hawk, at the same time). They just are not relevant to me, personally, because I'm not a member of a GLO that is represented by the NPC or NPHC. That is why I said the clarification may help someone else. But in NO WAY do I feel that other organization's practices are beneath me -- which is how I think you think I feel by how you are insinuating I lack respect for other organizations. That is NOT true in ANY case. Please don't start labeling me. :eek:

Outside of that, IMHO, anyone who wants to take issue with what I wrote is deliberately doing so, because I've tried several times to clarify; and even if I didn't use the correct terms, I find it very hard to believe that my intent and meaning were not understandable. I simply followed the OPs lead, that's all. Not being a member of either the NPC or NPHC, I did not believe it was my place to correct her, and when I replied to OTW, I gave general information that is public knowledge care of GC, Google, and the respective organization's websites. That's all, nothing else, and if that's not understandable, then I don't know what else I can do. :confused:

in no way am i trying to buy membership. im not that desperate.i sincerely have spoken to many of these women and attended many events to show my intrest, but i merely was speaking on the fact that if a sorority would like quality members invites shouldn't only come when there is a fundraiser. i really believe in free intimate events where u really get to know one another beyond fundrraisers. its not that damn serious!!

Why are you asking about it then?

Alumnae invite
 
I feel you must be diligent in your pursuit of becoming a member, just attending events and not making your intention knows are a waste of your time,However, you may not be a social butterfly- just make an attempt to connect with someone and let your desires be known.....i hope i was able to give you some sound advice. Again, good luck in your endeavor.

Good thing, too. There was so much lane swerving here, someone was about to get hit head on by the lanes going the opposite direction.
