It looks good TechTransfer. Just for the sake of clarity though, I have to be a little anal retentive and stand up for my own brotherhood.

Phi Mu Alpha Sinfonia also has a Greek word as (part of) its name. While not a member of the NIC, and while national rather than international, Sinfonia is a social fraternity and is a member of IFCs on many campuses. (I don't know whether our Mu Nu chapter at LA Tech is an IFC member or not.)

With that in mind, I would suggest:

"Acacia will be recruiting prospective members January 9-17. Acacia (uh-kay-shuh), one of the charter members of the North-American Intrafraternity Conference in 1909, is the only NIC fraternity to have a Greek word rather than Greek letters as its name. . . ."

Just my $0.02.
