NPC sororities do not have "brother fraternities." Similarly, NIC fratenities do not have "sister sororities." There may be things to do with either or both group's founding that connect them, but no groups are constitutionally bound.

False in a sense... but we've hashed through this already a dozen times.

No, not "false in a sense." FALSE. No NPC sorority is CONSTITUTIONALLY BOUND to any fraternity, which is what "brother and sister" means.

I think for lots of people, brother/sister can simply mean historical ties and informal relationships; it doesn't have to mean constitutionally bound.

I was going to say this. The whole constitutionally bound thing only exists between like the Sigmas and Zetas and Lambda Sigma Upsilon and Mu Sigma Upsilon.
