If you want to know specifically then do a search of past threads - I don't have the time or care that much to look it up. If one must know the actual names there are plenty threads discussing new orgs that had websites touting "the newest playa on the yard" yet if you check closely the site hasn't been updated since 97, 98, 2001...check further with current students at the school and the group doesn't exist anymore. Most never made it past their one campus or were ever legitimately registered as an organization (even as a campus group).
I also think we are all smart enough not to assume that only 9 organizations can serve all or that there isn't room for more or that all sororities/fraternities have to belong to NPHC. I also don't see anyone downing legitimate new efforts to form a new sororitiy/fraternity...you seem to be reading more into people's posts and want to keep sticking to that premise.
Like I said- copy a national program and make it work in your local community. Once you have enough members and are making real contributions then worry about getting some art that has meaning specific to your org commissioned.
