Oh, for the love of Pete, do we have to be 200% PC all the time? Does someone HONESTLY think that a rushee is going to get confused and think that her Rho Chi is taking her to a pharmacy party, or that an honors pharmacy student will accidentally wind up at a Rush function? NPC needs to stand up for itself for ONCE. Geez. I guarantee that NPC sororities have been on campus a helluva lot longer than the Rho Chi honor society.

(small break while dzrose93 does some internet research)

Yep, just as I suspected... Panhellenic came about in 1902, and the pharmacy society started 20 years later in 1922.
