Panhellenic News NPC Plans Interfraternal Forum The National Panhellenic Conference (NPC) will sponsor a forum designed to enhance cooperation and communication among interfraternal organizations in addressing mutual concerns. " NP C Interfraternal Forum2000 " will be designed to help participants confront important issues facing the contemporary college campuses and collegiate fraternity members. "The Greek System is under continuing pressure from college administrators, the general public , and its own members to address issues important to the future of Greek organizations ," said NPC Chairman Harriett Macht. "We look forward to meaningful dialogue with other interfraternal groups who share these mutual concerns. " A planning meeting for the forum will be held by April 15, 1992. The location and date of the forum will be determined during the planning process. A resolution proposing the forum was presented by a special committee on interfraternal relationships during the NPC biennial meeting which was held last November in Washington.
