It's not okay to stereotype and use that as an excuse for excluding members of a race from an organization no matter where you are in the country.

I don't know shinerbock's school, so I can't judge, but my feeling is that most likely the black students at shinerbock's schools don't even have a real desire to go through NIC or NPC rush. Most probably feel comfortable in NPHC orgs. That's how it is at Alabama, but there are exceptions.
So maybe it's a two-sided thing?
