DrPhil - NPCs pretty much either terminate you (i.e. you're not a member anymore and it's as if you've never been a member) or make you early alum when a chapter closes. There are times when people have financial issues but those are resolved by just paying up. It's not like I've seen with NPHC groups where Susie isn't allowed to participate in any XYZ events for 2 years or whatever.

Thanks. I figured Drolefile was making a general statement when she said sorority membership is for a lifetime and not being NPC-specific.

One thing that GC always reminds me of is that the lifetime membership is not very emphasized in the NPC, in general.

off topic: DrPhil, this brings to mind the discussion a while back about my observation of my DST friend and how deeply involved (and committed) she continues to be with her philanthropy and her sorority sisters. As I see it, the interpretation of NPC lifetime membership varies greatly and depends on many factors and circumstances.

So, while my "membership" does continue as an alum, my actual involvement with my fraternity depends on ME and how much I put into it (e.g. alumnae club activities, advisory board activities, etc).

back to the topic at hand...
