While the NPC was founded in 1902, not all of the sororities that are around today were a part of it back then. ASA was a part of the AES (I forget what that stands for exactly, but it's something like American Educational Sororities), and they focused mainly on teachers' colleges until the 1940s or 1950s, I think, when they joined the NPC and branched out.
I'm not sure if Sarah Ida Shaw was initiated into ASA or not, but it wouldn't have been impossible because they weren't the same conference at the time, although they are now. She also helped to found a couple of sororities that are no longer in existence but merged with DZ and ZTA, I think (?).
