Hi everyone --
As my username implies, I'm a Duke grad as well as mom to an almost 4-year old. I'm just starting the investigation process and only have a vague idea in which group(s) I'm interested, so I'll start by asking a question: Are women who join NPC sororities via AI generally younger (say, in their 20s) than those who join non-collegiate organizations such as Beta Sigma Phi?
I hesitate to reveal my age but will admit to being out of college for "a while".

From reading some of the other threads on this board I get a feeling (although perhaps completely unfounded) that most of the women who pledge NPC sororities are only a few years removed from college, whereas Beta Sigma Phi or Epsilon Sigma Alpha -- to use two examples -- are more likely to initiate sisters of all ages. I just want to make sure I pursue membership to a group in which I'll feel comfortable and have things in common with the women there. By the same token, I don't want to be the youngest person in my chapter by a decade (or two!).
Let me conclude by saying that I have discovered one NPC sorority whose national philanthropy/service project is very near and dear to my (and my husband's) heart. However, they have never had a Duke chapter so I don't have any college buddies from whom to get information on them.
I look forward to your responses...THANKS!
