About Sororities

As national sororities increased in number, they founded the National Panhellenic Conference( www.npcwomen.org), in 1902. The National Panhellenic Conference (NPC) is an umbrella organization for 26 inter/national women's fraternities and sororities, listed below. Each member group is autonomous as a social, Greek-letter society of college women and alumnae. Members are represented on over 620 college and university campuses in the United States and Canada and in over 4,800 alumnae associations, making up over 3.5 million sorority women in the world.
