I found this: http://www2.ucsc.edu/wmcenter/studentOrgs.html and it still lists NBO as an org there along with Alpha Psi. Interesting that Gamma Phi Beta isn't listed there though, although they're definitely still on campus.

And here's GPhiB's website and it states they had their first Panhel Recruitment with KKG: http://www.gammaphibeta.net/pb/wp_d6...70981267564835

Now I'm really confused...

Ok, here is the UC Santa Cruz website, it does not list NBO as an org but does list Alpha Psi along with GPhiB and KKG, along with another group, Kappa Zeta. Is NBO no more??? :(

Yeah, there isn't a date with that women's center page, so Idk when that is from (I found that too in my quest lol)

So, GphiB and KKG just had their first recruitment... and Kappa Zeta, that isn't even NPC right? (excuse my local-ness lol), I did a search on it, there are Kappa Zeta chapters of GLO's, but nothing by itself.

Yeah, I think the women's page is outdated and Kappa Zeta does come up on Google searches but the link doesn't work that goes to their website so not sure what their deal is. KZ isn't NPC but they may be an associate member as some locals are on other campuses, like I would imagine A-Psi is since they've been on campus for a while.

I'd just really like to know what became of NBO (and I hope it's not what I fear happened...)

Hey! I go to UCSC so I can clarify all of that. Gamma Phi and Kappa (woo!) are the only NPCs on campus. KZ and AY are locals. I've never heard of NBO, and I've gone to UCSC since fall 2005. Tri Chi and Phi Delta Xi are also multicultural locals on campus. This website http://soar.ucsc.edu/organizations.htm has an updated list of orgs registered with the school.

Update: I read most of wishinhopin's thread, and yeah, NBO isn't on campus anymore. Neither is Theta Nu Xi. NBO got so many more interest packets than we did! Haha, I'm not THAT jealous. I love Kappa, obviously!

I read the whole thread too...a while back over the summer. It is a great thread.

Was TNX ever on campus? I've always wondered. And, Alpha Psi has yet to get interest...hmmm.

I don't think Theta Nu Xi was ever on campus. She said (in her post) they didn't end up affiliating with them, so I think they always had the name NBO. However, Corina graduated from UCSC before I even started, so I could be wrong.

Lucy, you're right. In the thread, Corina talks about how they wanted TNX but then it didn't happen and it sounded like she wasn't quite sure why - but then again, she was graduating around that time...
