I'll not use it again here. Please tell me how to describe NPC sororities in the future as I was attempting to present a simple definition to go along with "National Panhellenic Conference."

National Pan-Hellenic Council = HBGLOs (descriptive, not prescriptive)

National Panhellenic Conference = (needs a descriptive title to distinguish since that was kinda the point of the thread)
I know this is kind of side-tracking, but my understanding is that there are also some kinds of HBGLOs which are not NPHC-affiliated - do they affiliate with any sort of council?

And does anyone have a link to a thread where I can best find out why HWGLO is offensive for NPC sororities? I'm having a hard time sorting through the search results, and I'm curious - the term seems accurate enough to me (?).
