I think Jess was referring to Delta Kappa Delta, which is a good sized Indian and South Asian sorority at Texas. Which is why I found the part of the post where she says that she doesn't know much about the Indian sororities rather strange given her user name. I pretty much assumed her posting here was a calculated move to steer Indian and other South Asian women away from NPC recruitment and into other options.

Although things have moved in the right direction, Texas' NPC sororities have a long way to go in increasing diversity. As some others mentioned, so much of our recruitment is legacy and hometown/high school/camp driven. The truth of the matter is that many women, no matter their race or any other factors, have virtually no chance of getting into many chapters. It's all about numbers.
No, I definitely wasn't trying to steer anyone away from NPC. That's why I said in my post that I didn't regret rushing and advised the girl who posted the original post of this thread to go ahead and rush if she wants to.
