CPC and NPHC Sororities: An Official Study on the Differences and Silimarities

[CutiePie2000]

I think you mean an "NPC" sorority, not "CPC" sorority.

Thank you so much CutiePie2000 for pointing out my mistake in such a respecful and helpful manner. I am doing this study because I want NPC and NPHC members to have a better understanding of each other. I, myself, am a member of an NPHC sorority and I have heard multiple terms for NPC sororities used:
NPC-National Panhellenic Conference
CPC-Collehge Panhellenic Conference
CPH-College Panhellenic

I did do my research and it seemed that on my campus the general term used is CPC. If this is wrong then I apologize and meant no disrespect. Thank you for your help! If you would like to participate further in this study (i.e. help me with other terms used in NPC sororities) please PM me and we can exchange email) .

sfksfl07- GC folks would be more supportive if they knew who you were. You have not posted in anybody's forum and this is your first one that you started. So we are all wondering, huh? Some of use are WTF? Or WTH?

But, I am wondering, what is your hypothesis, specific aim and the goal of your survey because the questions you ask are not directed and extremely hypothetical. You cannot do any kind of statistics, even if it is multivariate with ANCOVA.

If your goal is establish why NPC organizations do not strongly interact with NPHC sororities, besides the fact they are mostly of 2 different ethnic groups, then you are going to have to ask pointed questions:

I.E. The type of college/university you attended. How was school paid for: financial aid or parents or other. Did one work during school.

Most young ladies joined NPC organizations during their freshmen years. Other young ladies must have more than a semester GPA with fulltime student status to join NPHC sororities.

So you are dealing with a different dynamic between the two.

I can tell you your questions on your survey must be honed down to simplicity.

Thanks again AKA_Monet. I am so happy that you are so interested in my project. I truly appreciate your concern. I am working closely on this project under a professor of anthropology who has her Ph.D and has done plenty of research. I respect her experience and position enough to utilize her as my only advisor concerning my senior assignment. I am very well aware of all of the facts that you have given here and I again appreciate your concern!

Is she greek? And if she is, is she NPHC or NPC? Yes, it matters because it biases the kind of questions you are asking and you have lost some objectivity regarding your subject.

What if someone who is a member of another organization wants to the other survey? What are your control values?

I hated that survey. I especially hated the part where you asked people to write their Founders.

Was that to see if people remembered the Founders or cared enough about your survey to write them down? I didn't care enough about your survey so my response reflects that.
