I don't think everyone necessarily looks down on them but these groups are no longer legal or recognized by our organizations with the exception of Iota Phi Theta. Their sweethearts are recognized by them nationally.
The other groups were banned in 1990 even though some chapters insist on having them around, risking their chapters and reprimand by their national bodies.
Many NPHC sorority and fraternity members cannot understand why anyone would want to be apart of groups that aren't recognized but this is not to say that everyone necessarily looks down on them.
Speaking from my own experiences, sorority members don't, however; appreciate when these groups are disrespectful to them in any way. Being as though they are not even supposed to exist currently, no sorority or fraternity member should have to deal with them, especially if they are a nuisance, which they have become on some campuses.
