Educated guesses:

1) Other "minority" GLOs consider themselves to be peers of NPHC organizations.
2) Incorporation may have been difficult for them as well and it's a sense of pride.
3) It was the campus standard.
4) May have been assisted by NPHC members.

I lean toward number one, though. If an organization was founded for cultural or multicultural purposes and NPHC organizations were the closest model to what they were looking for, then it makes sense to me that certain traditions made sense to the founders of those orgs.

Or even better, if the lack of "incorporated" in the title would make an org seem illegitimate among its peers, then I can see them wanting it.
