You can find this information online.

The short version: there are several different "conferences" of fraternities and sororities (organized like a football conference, for lack of a better example). Some play only with others, but the same general rules apply to the game.

However, on the same college campus, there may be several organizations representing various Greek conferences (these conferences all have web sites that you can look up on your own):
  • North-American Interfraternity Conference (NIC) — association of 68 men's social fraternities; local organizations found on a single campus are usually known as "Interfraternity Councils."
  • National Panhellenic Conference (NPC) — association of 26 international social women's fraternities and sororities; local organizations found on a single campus are usually known as "Panhellenic Councils."
  • National Pan-Hellenic Council (NPHC) — association of 9 historically African-American fraternities and sororities; local organizations found on a single campus are usually known as "Pan-Hellenic Councils."
  • National Association of Latino Fraternal Organizations (NALFO) — association of 23 Latino fraternities and sororities.
  • National Multicultural Greek Council (NMGC) — association of 13 national and local multicultural Greek fraternities and sororities; local organizations found on a single campus are usually known as "Multicultural Councils" or "Unified Greek Councils."
  • Concilio Interfraternitario Puertorriqueño de la Florida (CIPFI) — umbrella council for the Florida chapters of 5 Puerto Rican Greek Letter Fraternities
  • Association of College Honor Societies — association of 65 honor societies.
  • Association of Fraternity Advisors — organization intended to support and assist advisors of fraternities and sororities.
  • College Fraternity Editors Association — organization for professional fraternity and sorority communicators.
  • Fraternity Executives Association — organization for professional fraternity and sorority members.
If you read up on these organizations and conferences, you should get the information you need for your research project. You should also call each conference's headquarters to verify that the statistics on the web site are correct.


You should not solicit answers to questions for a research project on an internet message board. You have no way to verify your sources.

Good luck with your research.

I'm pretty curious about what grade the OP is in.

Good luck on your project I guess!

There is TMI going on here no matter how helpful we all want to be...

It is barely August and no one is thinking about school and classes yet...

The least of folks worries should be pledging anything. Unless we are talking early recruitment. And if we are, then let us know what University or College are you talking about? ;)

I might be a little slow, but did you type that onto the picture (I ask b/c it fits so well for the OP). I know there are tons if I were to google them.

LOL. You rock.

Maybe if the questions you were asking were formatted in regular English and you gave us some context for why you were asking the questions you were we would have been able to answer them.

Good luck with that paper--I am sure it will display well thoughtout information and critical thinking, and that you'll get high marks in spelling and grammar.

ETA: Since when is Greekchat.com, a public message board, the authority in research?? If young people learn one thing--this is not a place where good, solid research should be done.
