That is understood, but since you have chapters/members at HBCUs, where the majority of students are Black, what has resulted is that GSS on *those campuses* have adopted NPHC styles, and using the term soror is just one of many.

Yikes! I meant when did this term become popular. Like I said, I had never heard it til GC.

Since AKA is recognized as the first collegiate sorority for Black women, I'm guessing the term soror became popular in 1908. But to tell you the truth, I've never researched the word.
