Inquiry about new Latina-based local sororities

[Researcher]

knight_shadow, there is so much data that I would never finish a book if I tried to do all. However, my book does also include some history about Latino-based (or Latino-oriented) Greek-letter fraternity (LGLF) development, a must when considering the close link between the founding of some Latina-based (or Latina-oriented) Greek-letter LGLS and LGLF. After finishing this book, I want to move to exploring other Greek-letter organizations, possibly LGLF. I am willing to co-author future work with any graduate student, as long as s/he understands what it means to write from a communication perspective.

Are you making an effort to create new terminology? Generally, Latina/o Greek orgs are abbreviated to "LGLO." I believe this is the first time I've ever heard of an "LaGLO," an "LGLF" or an "LGLS."

Your audience, if any, is most likely going to be Greeks interested in history. If you intend to cater to them, perhaps you should use their language.

I figured as much. I know it would be a tedious task to try to cover them all. It would be interesting, though, to hear something about the fraternity side, as Lambda Theta Phi is the only LGLO that I know of that has a published history.

ETA: Ditto what PJ said. This is the first time I've seen the acronyms "LaGLS" and "LGLF." LGLOs or Latino/a fraternities/sororities works just fine.
