Right. My concern was for the OP, or others like her, who may not know the difference and who may think pretty much solely in terms of the NPC when they think "sorority."

Your answer to dekeguy's question was certainly accurate. But in the context of this thread, where the OP appears to be asking about NPC sororities, it seemed like fuller explanation could be beneficial just so that the OP, and any others like her who may read the thread, are clear about the answers. That's all.

Right. I would hope that members of other councils would show the kind of respect that is expected in threads that involve their organizations and not derail conversations about our policies and procedures. NPC recruitment has lots and lots of rules and our recruitment process is governed by those. Our recruitment is also unique in how time sensitive it is. If you don't manage to navigate it at that time, your chances of becoming a member may become virtually zero. We also don't promote the same kind of research and reflection as others may. We're allowed to give PNMs straight answers about the process and other answers and at least some of us strive to do so here.

Mystic Cat,

I take your point and I agree. My question was very broad and a more precise query would have been of better help to the OP.

They will survive.

You are correct. I was just looking for general info about a subject I know very little about. Since there are several national umbrella groups I asked a broad question hoping for a broad answer. As to the use of PNM you are right again, I figured that it was a generic term that would hopefully cover the range of words describing what I always thought of as a "pledge".

Thanks for your comment which did answer what I asked.

I assure you that members of our organizations hardly consider out procedures nonsense. Your respect is greatly appreciated.

LOL. Is this your way of admitting that knight_shadow was correct? It is okay.

I did not believe that I was saving that poster from himself, though. I also told him to research.

What? I missed warm and fuzzy? Oh,sigh. Well, the DrPhil I know & love has excellent music appreciation for the BEST music, and that's all that I care about anyway.

Back to whatever this thread is about...

You have to be talking about MysticCat.

Nope. Name starts with " " and ends with " ". That's all I'm saying. He shall remain nameless (cue thunder and crashing music); perhaps he is sleeping and I've dodged a bullet.

Off to find some happy tunes! I'm feeling the need for some Reverend Al Green this evening.
