People this was not the point of my question... focus, please. I am well aware of why the two words exist. I am just wanting to know if it is okay to refer to NPC groups as Pan-Hellenics not panhellenics.
I have corrected my school. But because of the prolific use of the "pan-hellenic" usage, I just wanted to make sure that I hadn't missed the boat or the updated stylebook.
I would love if we could come together and have one governing body but fact is fact... there are 26 NPC groups (no there isn't an H or a W in NPC). I don't know enough about the workings of NPHC to know if we could ever join as one. It would be like Kentucky merging with Indiana... both have a lot in common but both have very different governing bodies... different laws and infastructure.
Please FOCUS... this is not a BLACK OR WHITE issue. THIS IS A STYLEBOOK QUESTION! GOT IT!
It is like the word ain't. I grew up with being told by teachers that "ain't" isn't in the dictionary and now we have teachers using the word.
So please let us get back to topic. Can pan-hellenic and panhellenic be used interchangable or is this a major faux pas?
Thank you... sorry to sound testy but you all lost focus.
