Hence, the reason why you would probably never see NPHC members participate in the annual rush week on your campus.....see, once we graduate from undergrad, our frats / sor days do not stop there....we transition to the graduate level, were we continue the purpose of our sorority / fraternity.

I like what you had to say outtAKAntrol, because I know where you are coming from. My dad is an Omega Psi Phi from UCLA, my mom a Delta Sigma Theta from Pepperdine, and my sister a Delta from Tennessee State University. Yet, I joined a traditional IFC fraternity. Their participation in their organizations has not ended, ever though they are out of college, and especially since they live in the south, where there are ALWAYS events to help better minority high schoolers and college students. I hope that I feel the same way when I leave school about my fraternity, although it's the brothers that I have here that really matter, not so much brothers I don't know.
On my campus, we also have the Asian and Hispanic fraternities, and it's great! I feel that everyone should have a group that they feel comfortable in-there are plenty of all-white groups and no one cares about them being all white, so they should have their organization as well, and they should feel free to participate or not in campus activities if they choose.
