..hopes this has shed some light on the subject

Just wanted to clarify something that I believe to be a misconception about NPC groups. I've heard NPHC members state many times the fact that they continue the purpose of their organization after they finish their undergraduate days at school. And, sometimes, the way that the NPHC members state this fact seems to imply that they feel that NPC members do
not continue to be involved with their GLOs after graduation.
I just want to point out that joining an NPC group is for life -- the same as joining an NPHC group is for life. I'm just as active now as a Delta Zeta alumna as when I was a collegiate. My philanthropy work and my social activities did not halt when I graduated. In fact, they have increased because I now am a member of 3 alumnae chapters and am an advisor to a DZ collegiate chapter (as opposed to being a member of a single chapter in college). My membership in these alumnae chapters has increased the opportunities for me to get involved in charitable, as well as social, events.
Anyway, I just wanted to clarify that NPC members don't stop striving to live up to their organization's standards after they leave school. I think some NPHC members may feel that they do, and I hope that my note clears up any misconceptions of that nature.
