There haven't been any quotes. If you would like to quote directly from the document you referred to that "hanged" on your wall, that might clear up the confusion.
NBH, as to WHY encouraging brother/sister relationships on a national level can be a problem for NPC groups, please see my earlier posts.

There is no "rule" and no group is going to be in "trouble" from NPC for any reference to a brother fraternity.

It troubles me that a non-member of an organization thinks its her place to say how another organization should run their business when no rule is being broken.

WE didn’t have them on my campus, but for some reason I think AXiD is inherently awesome. That is all.

The only official relationship I know of is Zeta Phi Beta Sorority, Inc. and Phi Beta Sigma Fraternity, Inc. Members of the NPHC, they share a constitutional bond.

Maybe I'm missing something (wouldn't be the first time and I'm sure it won't be the last), but as far as I can tell, the constitutional bond between Zeta Phi Beta and Phi Beta Sigma has not jeopardized either of their single-sex status. Nor that or any other GLO for that matter. So why couldn't an NPC and NIC/IFC do something similar (legal and constitutional bound) as well?

Did the thread get lame because Kevin demonstrated he's pretty much right?
Or is it because people are now going to have to debate the meaning of officially?

Why don't you refer to the active AXiD sister who made references to the explanation of this relationship in her new member manual provided by HQ. She then took some sort of quiz regarding history in which the question "Who is our brother fraternity?" was asked. It's page 4ish.
That should clear up your confusion.

During my NM period we did learn about the connection. Although not official, many member see the brother of Sigma Nu as brother. This is just something that each member feels. HQ supports the chapters in teaching NMs about the historical connection but many member like the thought of an unofficial brother fraternity. HQ never said that there was an offical connection. Also most members know that it is an unoffical connection but some don't care.
There is no Sigma Nu chapter at my school and I know that they are not our "brother" fraternity, but I still feel excitment and joy when I meet a brother of Sigma Nu. I guess that most members are just really greatful to them for all the help they gave our Founder.

If Kevin hadn't shot his mouth off in the first place, this thread would have never had to "go there."
