That always was funny to me. The fact that the group is incorporated often outshines the name of the organization itself. I guess that getting a BGLO incorporated in the early 20th century was no easy feat.
People be like "I'm a member of XYZ... INCORPORATED!"

Nah, incorporation was not that difficult of a task...even then. I'm not sure why people put emphasis on the "inc".

Umm.. its a branding thing.. It makes the name of the orgainization sound more official. That subconsciously catches a lot of people's attention rather they know it or not. When most people hear INCORPORATED they usually create a mental image of a corporate building which in turn makes your organization's presentation more business- like and less campus organization- like.

I usually only hear it stressed really hard by Deltas and AKAs......
Anybody ever think that it may be a piece in the early race between the two orgs? History notes that they rapidly raced to get the incorporation title added to the title...

we did it to distinguish ourselves from the white people. Everyone else referred to us (and only us) that way as well.
