NAK left years ago due to NALFO's insurance requirements.

ODP and later SLB left because of the no 1st semester freshman rule NALFO instituted.

The reason that 3 fraternities left vs no sororities is because those three felt like they had a backup council, The North-American Interfraternity Conference. All three that left were NIC members as well.

Latina Sororities in general do not have backup council. The female NIC equivalent the NPC is much more restrictive than the NIC.

That's because the NPC, like NALFO, and the NPHC are really governing councils whereas the NIC really is a trade organization. The NIC has guidelines but does not enforce rules on it's member fraternities. The NIC's main purpose is the be the fraternity lobby in Washington.

Now as the the separate question as to whether organization should leave NALFO because they are no longer Latino not likely. ODP, and NAK are definitely Latino organizations. SLB for the most part as well.

However there has been a great push on the internet to de-emphasize the connection with NALFO and LGLO. Most of the NALFO edits on wikipedia were make by a "coquidragon" which suspect is also "Little Dragon."

There is nothing wrong with that. NALFO does not automatically = Latino Greeks, anymore so than NPHC does not automatically = Black Greeks. But obviously there is some sensitivity to the subject.
