Other social, service, professional, cultural, etc. --fine.

Where does it say this? I'm just curious because on their national website it says," If you are a member of another organization holding membership in the National Pan-Hellenice Council, Inc. or in the Panhellenic Conference Inc., you are not eligible." It says nothing about if you disaffiliated and are no longer a member.

There is no "disaffiliation" in our vernacular. In our language, you are considered a member of your organization for life even if you do not remain active or "denounce" your letters. If you have been initiated in any other NPHC or NPC organization, you are not eligible for membership in Delta. I am a recent initiate and trust me, it was emphasized.

Interesting, this is the first mention of the interaction between memberships in the NPC and NPHC that I've seen. I expected that you couldn't be Chi O and Delta Sigma Theta, but nice to see it in writing.
