No, you're right - the fraternities with joint membership in the NPHC and the NIC are Alpha Phi Alpha and Iota Phi Theta. Omega Psi Phi and Phi Beta Sigma are not members of the NIC. With individual schools' IFCs, I don't know, I guess that would depend on how they are structured.

Personally, I don't see what is such a big deal with using the terms traditionally white fraternity or traditionally white sorority ... it can get tricky when you're trying to not to use the terms.
