Absolutely!
You have come to the right place to learn! I have learned a lot from NPHC members and Multi-Cultural members.
From what I know or have learned from being on Greek Chat:
- If you are initiated into one NPC, you cannot be initiated into another NPC.
This is a Rule of the National Panhellenic Conference.
- If you join one NPHC, you cannot join another NPHC.
As far as belonging to an NPC and trying to join another group that is non-NPC, it might not be written down anywhere that it is not allowed, but again, I would say that this is frowned upon. What's more, is what Serenity said....the 2nd non-NPC group might not allow you in, as you've already been initiated into the NPC one, since you've declared your loyalty/allegiance/commitment to the 1st group.
And from a practical point of view, it would be tough to devote equal time and attention to 2 sororities! Better to be a good member with time to devote to one sorority, than a not-so-good member with no time to devote to either of the 2, right?
