When refering to the organization in conversation, formal or not, we use "Delta Sigma Theta Sorority, Incorporated" because that is how our organization wishes to be commonly known. I would imagine the other NPHC organizations have the same stipulation. It is no different than addressing a person how s/he wishes to be addressed. Would you call a person who does not allow you to address her/him by a shortened version her/his name arrogant as well, or would you respect their wish because it is her/his name and not yours?
