When I went through they were known as Gamma Chi then later changed to Rho Chi (Recruitment Counselor). There was a professional fraternity with that name so they changed it to SRC (sorority recruitment counselor)

When I first joined: Rho Chi.
It is now: Sorority Recruitment Counselor.

(I think SRC is now the current correct term per the most recent MOI.)

Interesting. I wonder if they have also changed it where I went to college, to SRC. I wonder what their reasoning is for altering the name? To be more "PC," I assume?

Yes. Same with the change from Formal Recruitment to Primary Recruitment.

It's not Rho Chi anymore because there's a professional pharmacy fraternity called that, so schools started calling them Pi Chis or Pi Rho Chis (Pi for Panhellenic).

Auburn uses Pi Chi, but Alabama still uses Rho Chi. It's just an informal name.
