What does the acronym NPHC stand for?

• A. National Pan-Hellenic Council
• B. National Pan-Hellenic Committee
• C. National Pan-Hellenic Confederation
• D. National Phi-Hellenic Council

Answer: (A)

This question tests knowledge of the official name of the national umbrella for the nine historically African American fraternities and sororities. The established expansion is National Pan-Hellenic Council, which signals national scope (National), all Greek-letter organizations in this tradition (Pan-Hellenic), and a coordinating governing body (Council). The other options use terms that don’t reflect the official designation (Committee, Confederation, or Phi-Hellenic), so they don’t fit.
