"Otherness" refers to not viewing people or organizations as having equal footing and therefore they are of no concern. The result is disregard and apathy. I have always believed, and still believe, that the NPC at the national level and (majority of) chapter levels view themselves as THE sororities. Add to that the fact that NPC sororities are predominantly white and the otherness is both organizational and racial.
Follow what money? My Sorority doesn't prohibit NPC members because we are following money. In fact, we could probably make more money if we accepted the Black women over the years who joined an NPC sorority and then tried to pledge Delta.
