Not really. People are comfortable about being around people that are like them...
I know several guys in Omega Psi Phi among other black fraternities (mostly A Phi A otherwise), but we would never hang out on the weekends because we don't have any commonalities. Perhaps they are there....but the superficial things which get people to be friends aren't there.
Just because we have Greek letters does not mean we need to hang out with ANY other group but our own. I joined my house, not a Greek system.

It's like a civil war in Africa; you know, it doesn't really concern you too much. - P.J. O'Rourke
