AEPhi doesn't have a "tag" in the sense that I think you mean it. We don't recruit only Jewish women; we will offer membership to any qualified woman who we feel will be a good sister, regardless of her religion. It's true that a lot of Jewish women tend to gravitate toward AEPhi, but that doesn't mean we only recruit Jews, nor does it make us a "Jewish sorority". The "tag" GLO's, in my (admittedly limited) experience, tend to recruit mainly or exclusively members of their specific religious or ethnic interest.

No... I think everyone's point is that it's unlikely to happen any time soon, because becoming an NPC member is so difficult, plus a lot of non-NPC national sororities may not wish to be bound by the unanimous agreements, so they may not even want to try to join NPC.
