What is the stated purpose of the NPHC in 1930?

• A. "Unanimity of thought and action as far as possible in the conduct of Greek-lettered collegiate fraternities and sororities and to consider problems of mutual interest to its member organizations." - Greek Unity
• B. To promote academic achievement among member organizations
• C. To regulate sorority recruitment
• D. To sponsor social events

Answer: (A)

The main idea here is unity and collaboration among the member Greek-letter organizations. In 1930, the NPHC stated its purpose as seeking unanimity of thought and action as far as possible in the conduct of Greek-lettered collegiate fraternities and sororities, and to consider problems of mutual interest to its member organizations. That phrasing shows two clear aims: first, to work toward consensus and coordinated action rather than isolated efforts, and second, to focus on issues that affect all member groups.

So the best choice captures the council’s goal of bringing the Divine Nine together to act in harmony and to address shared concerns. It isn’t about promoting academics, regulating recruitment, or merely organizing social events, even though those can be part of a fraternity or sorority’s activities. The 1930 statement centers on unity in conduct and on tackling mutual interests as a collective.
