[PGD-GRAD]

According to sources this morning, a current New York House of Rep. member will be named today to replace Hillary Clinton as New York Senator. Kirsten Gillibrand, a graduate of Dartmouth in 1988 and a member of Kappa Kappa Gamma there, will become New York's Junior Senator.

Gillibrand is a vocal proponent of Greek life and is supporting the legislation to allow ANY money given to fraternity or sorority housing to be totally tax-deductible. Currently, only money used for educational purposes (libraries, computers) can be deducted.

Here is the question: I know that Blanche Lincoln from Arkansas is a Chi O, and I believe Claire McCaskill from Missouri is a sorority member. But--how many female U.S. Senators are there, and which ones are NPC members? I know we look at this issue occasionally, but there were many new members elected recently. Like, how about the new Senator from North Carolina who replaced Tri Delt Liddy Dole?
