Depending on what you thought of, you may not be too off base. You have me curious. LOL.



Yes, we stress being financial and active at some level until the day we die.

I may be missing what you're saying, so pardon me if I am:
I understand the NPC founding contexts and purposes. It seems that would be even more reason to stress the lifelong involvement. There are similarities and differences between the NPHC and NPC founding contexts and purposes. We all stress scholarship, empowerment, address minority status, sisterhood, social, and service. But, it's about more than our founding principles and purposes. Not every NPHC org was founded at an HBCU and we were founded by Black men and women in the early 1900s and Civil Rights Era. We were minorities on campus and/or in society. Our relevance continues 47-104 years later and we stress duly initiated members' role in doing so long after initiation.
I'm approaching this from an NIC point of view obviously. That being said I think she meant that NPHC tends to stress the philantrophy aspect of membership more then either NIC or NPC does. Of course she can correct me if I'm completly off base.

Nope, not gonna correct you, mister - b/c you're also right about what I was trying to convey. Often I have several thoughts running simultaneously that are all connected in this piece of matter I have called a brain. Things are interrelated and I don't always explain my thoughts well.

But you guys are GOOD, you get it. Wow.

Bottom line is I respect my friend and emulate her as much as I can, both professionally and personally. She's amazing! We decided we were sisters in another life

OK, OK - a swerve, off topic, so back to the thread at hand.
