NPC include Alpha Omicron Pi, Alpha Phi, Delta Delta Delta, Delta Gamma, Delta Zeta, Gamma Phi Beta, and Sigma Kappa .

All of the Divine 9 are represented at CSULB as well.
There are also 12 cultural GLO's on campus as well.
Gamma Phi Beta has also been at CSULB continuously since our chartering in 1962. I'm not aware of any dormant period. I wouldn't say the admin there was negative- they just didn't want to deal with Greek issues. Sigma Kappa re-opened at Long Beach in the late 80's. There wasn't much in the way of multi-cultural groups while I was there, but the NPHC groups were very strong. I think you won't see expansion there mainly because the city of Long Beach has made it virtually impossible to get a permit for any new greek off campus housing. Cost of membership is certainly a factor for many commuter students who don't need housing, so maybe someone could come on and be viable as a lower cost, unhoused option.
