NPC launches sororityIQ.com site

[tld221]

I have a question: has NPC interest/desire decreased significantly to the point of needing a website to spark the interest of incoming freshwomen? Or is this a matter of using the power of the internet and how far it reaches?

The upside, as I see it, is that its controlled/mainted by NPC so there's no room for it to get out of control like JC (or other 3rd party/informational websites). And while (as of know, who knows it could change) this website may present a narrow or specific image of what NPC sorority life is like, I think, to a degree, that's OK, because part of researching sororities (or anything) is finding sources that support many sides/arguments of its issues.

Btw, I think its FABULOUS how this is done for NPC and not for fraternities. Men don't need to be sold to like women, and this is case in point. Do we really need to drive the point home to our daughters/sisters/nieces/friends/mentees that its essential for a woman to socially associate herself with a group and be identified as XYZ?

Probably the latter. I think (just from looking at the most recent annual reports and just seeing the # of schools expanding) that NPC membership has remained reasonably constant.

I don't think this website gives off the vibe of "it is essential for you to be associated with a sorority when you go to college." I see ity as more of a "hey, we know you're looking at colleges and things to do at college, and this is defintely something you want to look into."
