We aren't even sure this is an NPC lane. She never said.

Are women from Barnard allowed to join Columbia's sororities?

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...

(now waiting for a smartaleck comment from a certain someone who shall remain nameless)

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.

She did talk about contacting the president of the "Collegiate Panhellenic Council," which I took to be an indication of NPC interest, but maybe not. She also mentioned "rush," which while the NPC doesn't use that term anymore, many PNMs do.

Yes ma'am, they are. But the official name is "Barnard College of Columbia University" and they share a course catalog. Barnard students join the Columbia scramble band, Columbia student orgs are open to Barnard women. Barnard does have some orgs that Columbia students can't join, but.. Columbia is pretty much open to Barnard.

To clear up some confusion and maybe get a clearer answer, I want to try and become a "member" of ZTA or Phi Mu. Sorry if my terminology isn't incorrect, I will have to do my research

So, while reading through every answer and tangent, someone said I might need to get permission from both schools. I don't have time to go through recruitment (?) during the Fall (fall athlete and working) so I was planning on trying for the Spring. If this is at all possible, should I email both schools' administrations and the President of the Collegiate Panhellenic Council and also officers from the sororities I want to try and get a bid from (I understand they can't promise bids)?

Again, any and all advice/help would be useful! But please, avoid tangents

Oh, and ZTA and Phi Mu aren't the only two sororities I would email, I would email all the ones on campus. Those are just the two I am most interested in.

No. You either didn't read very well or you didn't bother to clarify your terms. You can not join an NPC organization (which includes both ZTA and Phi Mu) if you are not a full-time student at the school where the chapter exists.

And Columbia doesn't have either group so she's not talking about the unusual Barnard/Columbia relationship. So it is a no.

No. Many NPC sororities do not offer bids to graduate students. (I have no idea whether ZTA and/or Phi Mu do or don't as I'm not in either one.)

At any rate, don't count on receiving a bid ANYWHERE as a grad student, even if the campus you go to for grad school has NPC sororities.
