Are you intent on being a local? Do you mean Zeta Phi Beta is the only NPHC sorority represented or the only sorority period? Is there a reason why you aren't interested in Zeta? Is the campus in a position to desire expansion, whether it be a local or national sorority? Do you have a campus Panhellenic?

Regarding the letters, try researching NPC, NPHC, NIC, service fraternities, multi-cultural sororities, professional fraternities, etc. There are a gazillion of them out there. Typically the letters stand for something other than copyright or creative infringement from a popular movie.

We intent to be a local sorority, because we we're told that is what we can do since there is no national sorority at our college. And, Zeta Phi Beta is the only sorority there at our campus(and it's mainly a black sorority, so we can't be in it). I along with several other girls have tried. Our college gave permission to be either "local" or "national". So, we thought to start local and grow to national level. We do not have a campus Panhellenic.

I will contact the NPC and ask for advice for further questions. I do appreciate your help. Any other advice, would still be helpful.

Respectfully,
Dolores
