Panhellenic Council is the governing body of LRC s four nationally affiliated sororities and is a part of the National Panhellenic Conference. The NPC organization was established to foster inter-fraternity relationships, to assist collegiate chapters of the member groups and to cooperate with colleges and universities in maintaining the highest scholastic and social standards. The four sororities at Lenoir-Rhyne are Delta Zeta, Kappa Delta, Sigma Kappa, and Zeta Tau Alpha. Each supports a national philanthropy as well as numerous projects of local interest. While each organization conducts its own program, they frequently come together as one sisterhood for special programs and events.
Membership is gained by invitation following recruitment.
Every sorority woman is a member of the Panhellenic Association. The Council is composed of two delegates from each sorority. The major responsibilities of the Council are to establish and uphold rules governing recruitment activities for all sororities, to sponsor individual and group service projects, and to initiate other worthwhile campus activities. The possession, sale, use or consumption of alcoholic beverages, while on chapter premises, during a fraternity event, in any situation sponsored or endorsed by the chapter, or in any event an observer would associate with the fraternity, must be in compliance with any and all applicable laws of the state, province, county, city and institution of higher education, and must comply with either the BYOB or Third Party Vendor Guidelines. No alcoholic beverage may be purchased through chapter funds nor may the purchase of same for members or guest be undertaken or coordinated by any member in the name of, or on behalf of, the chapter.
