NPC Sororities with no school overlap?
 

If two groups were to merge, ideally there would be no overlap where you had schools with active chapters of both Fraternity.

I know that the NIC has pairs of Fraternities for which that is true, (Kappa Alpha Society and Alpha Gamma Sigma for example) and given the fact that the NIC has a dozen fraternities with less than twenty active chapters, there are probably *lots* more pairs. (In fact I think for KA Society and AGS there aren't even any schools with charters in common (active or inactive))

I know that there are no pairs of NPHC fraternities/sororities for which it is true (all 9 have active chapters at a large number of schools)

Is it true for the NPC? Are there any pairs of NPC sororities that have no overlap between the schools where they have active chapters? (Ignore for the purposes of this whether their history and culture would make a merger even close to reasonable)

This is the fundamental question, right?

I don't think so.

I've read the whole original post several times and am ashamed to admit that I have no idea what it means. What am I missing? Can someone re-word this?

Is there any sorority which has ALL of its chapters in places that another sorority has NONE chapters?

Small scale:

AAA sorority is at St. Wilona's, Big State, and Darden Valley College.

BBB sorority is at St. JJ's, Guam State, and Lazarus Women's College.

For example, I believe Alpha Omicron Pi and Theta Phi Alpha only share 1 campus in common.

Edit: But TPA just colonized at Nebraska, so make that 2.

Actually, I can think of at least four schools with active chapters of both groups, not including the Theta Phi Alpha colony at Indiana :)

Sydney, don't feel bad.. I didn't understand the question at first, either.

I figured this out a while ago for AST, and there was one sorority (I wish I could remember which!) that we didn't share any campus with. However, that was a couple years ago, so things might have changed since then.

Seeing as that 20 of 26 NPCs are at Indiana alone, the chances would be very small. It would only take a study of the 6 that aren't there. Three of those 6 (Sigma Kappa, ASA, Sigma) are at Penn State, which cross-references 17 groups there.

ETA: Seems that there was a thread several years ago that listed how many common campuses particular sets of chapters had. Perhaps those that are better at searching this site than I am can find it.

I was going to guess DPhiE and AEPhi (now that AEPhi has withdrawn from Emory)?

or DG and AST?

Found this one in a quick search of New York state.

Thanks - I couldn't find a recent listing of AEPhi chapters.

For some reason, I keep thinking the sorority we don't share a campus with is Kappa Delta.. But I could be wrong.

I'm not in front of a computer so it makes it difficult to confirm right now.

Ok, I'll bite.

Why are we wondering this?

Using irishpipes's list, there's overlap at Eastern Illinois, Longwood, and Beloit.
