nitpick

I know this is a nit but it's been driving me nuts lately -

Pan Hel or Pan-Hellenic refers to the National Pan-Hellenic Council, the organization frequently referred to as the "Divine Nine" historically African American fraternities and sororities.

Panhel or Panhellenic refers to the National Panhellenic Conference, the organization of 26 sororities that are historically primarily white. No hyphen, no space, no capital H.

So if you were in an NPC sorority, you were probably NOT on Pan Hell, or vice versa.

It's "just" a typo, but the result is to give the name of the wrong organization, which is pretty serious.
