Clarification 501(c)(7) has always been our IRS designations--membership social clubs.
While all of the NPHC orgs now claim service as their cornerstone, most of them were not founded for the express purpose of service. But because of the nature of the groups--selective memberships, even those that were, were still given (c)(7) designations.
So it really had nothing to do with Title IX. We were already protected and no one was seeking to change their designation anyway.
