I am not trying to ascertain anything. I am just trying to see what different people's ideas and perspectives are. There is a difference.
What I'm talking about regarding a stronger standardized national presence is not "oh, those are the light-skinned girls" or "oh, those are the smart girls" or "oh, those are the smart light-skinned girls" or whatever, I'm talking about things like with NPHC, there seems to be more of an across the board culture, and it's widely known - lots of girls in high school know about the differences in NPHC orgs and which ones they want to be in. They know the colors, the community service, the general history, etc. - it's just known, and that's standard across the nation. I'm not saying that there are no standards for NPC groups, I'm just saying that the national presence and the public knowledge isn't as strong. And I'm not saying that's wrong.
I don't know why some people are getting so worked up about this - it's just a question, I'm not trying to challenge any one's org. I'll repeat: I am not in either group. I have friends in both. I'm just wondering, because it's something I noticed. 33girl - okay, so your answer is you think it's the number of orgs that causes the differences. No need to yell.
