The NIC isn't really concerned with the specific policies of their member organizations regarding letters. That is left up to each fraternity HQ. Then each chapter. In other words, if there is a specific policy in the fraternity's by-laws, that should supercede the chapters'. But if not, then I would guess each chapter would set their own protocol (rules/guidelines). That is, if they even have anything official. My guess is that the campus culture might influence whether they are given out or not as well.

As for girlfriends being given letters, again that would be up to each fraternity's HQ first, followed by chapter protocol, then campus culture.
Thank you so much TSteven. You have cleared up a great many questions. I appreciate your help and time resolving this.
