I ask because I'm an ADPi, but I also joined the Phi Alpha Delta Pre-Law Fraternity (before recruitment) and nothing has happened concerning my dual membership. Lots of girls in my chapter, and other chapters on campus are in a professional fraternity as well.

The
National Pan-Hellenic Council, Inc. (
NPHC) is an umbrella organization for nine historically black Greek letter fraternities and sororities. You'll often hear them referred to as the Divine 9.
I'm surprised you don't know what NPHC stands for. I know not all New Member Education programs are the same, but I assumed that there'd be some information about the NPHC. I learned about the NPHC the same time I learned about the other 25 NPC sororities.
As far as dual memberships go (in a NPC/NPHC & honorary/professional/service sense), we all know it's possible and allowed. The person I quoted earlier was definitely mistaken.
