Going NPC?

[PhiRhoSister]

The basic NPC membership requirements:

NPC Associate Membership -- The sorority must have 12 collegiate chapters and an established national character for 9 years. National character is like a National Council/Board that oversees the chapters.

NPC Active Membership -- The sorority must be NPC associate member for 4 years, with an established national character for 13 years; and have a minimum of 14 collegiate chapters, with the 14th chapter being at least 2 years old.

Phi Sigma Rho considered the option of NPC associate membership several years ago, but decided not to apply due to NPC views on extension. I believe my sorority is looking into starting another women's conference with a more similar view on extension like the NIC.

The NIC is for [I]men's[I] fraternities.

LOL thanks for clearing that up for me. I was SO confused when I was clicking through their list (which says sororities/fraternities) and each link brought me to a fraternity page, LOL.

Has this gone anywhere? We recieved an e-mail last summer I believe asking about interest in this, but were reorganizing at the time. I haven't been able to get a response since then from the person that contacted us.

Would love to hear more on this....

My name is Alysia Rourke and I am the CEO of Kappa Delta Phi National Affiliated Sorority (www.kappadeltaphinas.org) We are a non-panhellenic national sorority and I have been researching other organizations such as ours in hopes of forming an umbrella group which is geared toward smaller national organizations who do not fit the criteria or wish to join NPC.

If anyone could either provide me with contact information for your national board of directors or pass along my contact information to them, I would appreciate it. I can be reached at alysia@kappadeltaphinas.org.

Thank you for your assistance,

Alysia

There are at least two organizations geared towards Latino oriented groups and one (possibly two) geared toward multicultural organizations.

One of the Latino orgs is NALFO. I think the MC org is NMCGC (National Multicultural Greek Council)?

Unfortunately, my organization falls under neither description.....as we are not culturally bases. Kappa Delta Phi NAS is based on philanthropic ideals. I am aware of both NALFO & NMCGC though our contacts within AFA (Association of Fraternal Advisors) as well as our association with Kappa Delta Phi National Fraternity and their membership to NIC.
