oldu - I really enjoy your research. I do hate that sometimes an ill-conceived title gets in the way. May I humbly suggest that instead of the more general titles you have used in the past, you make your titles very specific, thus avoiding the hurt feelings sometimes engendered by groups feeling slighted or ignored?

As to the whole NPC/NPHC thing - we need to understand that the groups were largely products of their times. Thus the different focus in terms of original purpose, for example. But both groups had hundreds of active, educated women who made a difference in their groups, colleges, communities and country. We need to celebrate those noble women, and worry less about who did what when and more about the overall progress brought about the individual and group efforts of the wonderful members of BOTH of our groups.
