That is exactly what she's talking about. If a Delta Sigma Theta would get a tote bag with her letters on it in pink and blue, NOT GOOD would be an understatement.
Some NPC groups have different national and local mascots, some don't. Not every NPC group has an **official** national mascot, so technically any mascot you'd see a chapter use would be local. They all have national things that have special meaning to every group, but sometimes they are things that are darned hard to make cute and cuddly mascots out of.
And to answer Ren's question, nearly ALL NPC/NIC sororities and fraternities have "families" within their chapters. How into it the families get with colors, names, mascots etc really depends on the school. We had a family sweatshirt that the big gave the little at initiation, but other than that, it wasn't a huge deal. (We also had a family shirt in my APO family.)
