confusion...

Sister Sorors
Maybe the conflict existed because Alpha Phi was not chartered at Howard until April 28, 1939. I know there are other SGRho chapters in the area, but I don't know when they were chartered. But I do know the NPHC was chartered first at Howard U, my alma mater.

From our historical archives:


Sigma Gamma Rho, one of the organizers of the Pan-Hellenic Council, voluntarily withdrew its membership at the Sixth Boule (1930), to meet the campus chapter quota as prescribed by the Constitution drawn up by the NPHC. It was readmitted 5 February 1937.


Also in the historical archives:

Representatives of Sigma Gamma Rho, Alpha Kappa Alpha and Delta Sigma Theta Sororities and Kappa Alpha Psi, Alpha Phi Alpha and Omega Psi Phi Fraternities met in Indianaplis, 27-30 December 1928 to establish a Pan-Hellenic Council.

So they were among the charters, but they voluntarily withdrew because of their own high standards (but of course), then came back in February 1937.

EEEEEEEEEEEEEEE-Yip!!! to my SoRHOrs!!!! [/B]
