Event Details

Message from National Convention Chairman:

It is with great excitement that I along with  the National Convention and Planning Committee invites you to 65th Biennial National Convention and Greek Symposium on May 28-30, 2009 at the Grand Hyatt Hotel in Washington, DC. 

Registration deadline is May 16, 2009 and there is no onsite registration for this convention.

 

In keeping with our convention’s theme,  “Education x Economics = E2: The Power of Nine,”  our National Convention and  Planning Committee is coordinating an innovated , informative and educational program. A variety of speakers and presenters have been invited to share information and  ideas to take back to your councils. You will also have the opportunity to hear in greater details about the NPHC’s reorganization.

 

While in Washington, we hope that you will take advantage of all the cultural activities, city attractions and great restaurants.

 

The only thing missing from the E2 equation is you! We hope to see you in our Nation’s Capitol this May.

National Pan-Hellenic Council, Incorporated



The National Pan-Hellenic Council, Incorporated (NPHC) is currently composed of nine (9) International Greek letter Sororities and Fraternities: Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority, Inc. Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity, Inc., Delta Sigma Theta Sorority, Inc., Zeta Phi Beta Sorority, Inc., Iota Phi Theta Fraternity, Inc., Kappa Alpha Psi Fraternity, Inc., Sigma Gamma Rho Sorority, Inc. Phi Beta Sigma Fraternity, Inc. and Omega Phi Psi Fraternity, Inc. NPHC promotes interaction through forums, meetings and other mediums for the exchange of information and engages in cooperative programming and initiatives through various activities and functions.

On May 10, 1930, on the campus of Howard University, in Washington DC, the National Pan-Hellenic Council was formed as a permanent organization with the following charter members: Omega Psi Phi and Kappa Alpha Psi Fraternities, and Alpha Kappa Alpha, Delta Sigma Theta and Zeta Phi Beta Sororities. In 1931, Alpha Phi Alpha and Phi Beta Sigma Fraternities joined the Council. Sigma Gamma Rho Sorority joined in 1937 and Iota Phi Theta Fraternity completed the list of member organizations in 1996. The stated purpose and mission of the organization in 1930 was “Unanimity of thought and action as far as possible in the conduct of Greek letter collegiate fraternities and sororities, and to consider problems of mutual interest to its member organizations.” Early in 1937, the organization was incorporated under the laws of the State of Illinois and became known as the “National Pan-Hellenic Council, Incorporated.”
