Alright boys, I realize that your comments were all in good fun, and I am the last person to not be able to take a joke, but even I have to say lay off a little. Some of the comments could be considered a little rude and uncalled for. Lets play nice

To Stan on a serious note...

Here is what the National Pnahellenic Conference is all about:

The NPC has 26 women's fraternities (aka sororities)currently. The NPC was started because st the turn of the century when greek lettered organizations increased, members realized they had many common objectives and problems. Each fraternity selects an offical delegate who cast the fraternity's votes and acts as the liason betweenher fraternity and other NPC member groups. Each fraternity may have up to 3 alternate delegates.
The NPC meets biennially. The offices of Chairman, Secretary, and Treasurer are held by member fraternities in rotation, according to their admission to the NPC, So the opportunity for a fraternity to have one of its members to hold the head position only comes every 52 years.
Members of the NPC work together in a bond of mutual respect to share information and strengthen the entire fraternity system. It is a conference body, which CANNOT transgress or supersede in any way the rights and powers of individual fratenities. There are certain statements, principles and standards of conduct, which have been approved by all member groups known as the Unanimous Agreements. These agreements cover the Panhellenic Compact, Standards of Ethical Conduct, College Panhellenics Agreement, Agreement on Questionnaires and Constitutions, Jurisdiction of a College Panhellenic Council, The Declaration for Freedom and the Panhellenic Creed. Each fraternity is responsible for enforcing within its membership adherence to these agreements.
The NPC along with Alumnae and Collegiate Panhellenics meet to discuss mutual concerns, formualte recruitment procedures, uphold good scholarship, and promote harmony and understanding in order to further the ideals of fraternity.


*side note all in love and fun as I am sure the guys comments where*

I think most of their rules are designed to screw over fraternities- for spite or for fun, I'm not sure.
No need to screw you guys, you seem to be perfectly capable of doing it to yourselfs
