It may not have been as clear as you needed it to be, but I brought up SGRho being the first BGLO for women educators. Also, the NPHC was not created until after their founding as well as after the amending of the constitution. Therefore, contacting the NPHC would be null and void.

back to the regularly scheduled thread...

Yes and no. Yes because you state that they didn't need any type of approval(which I feel that's hard to believe). No because I wasn't referring to anything pertaining to the NPHC(due to it being founded after the sorority was founded). Alpha Kappa Alpha had to get approval from the officers of Howard University as well as Delta Sigma Theta(which was all before the founding of the NPHC). However, since certain people feel that I'm throwing the thread off track, my topic can be dropped. Based on what has been posted, it seems that it doesn't matter if there was an existing organization on campus with similar interests, but it depends on the approval from the officers of the university.
Back to your regulary scheduled program.
