I had the same issue in the 70s at my campus. We - the Unified Fraternal Organization (we didn't have separate Panhellenic and IFC except on paper), the dean of students (who was black, but not a member of one of the chapters on our campus), and the student government representative - all tried to find a framework for the groups to work and socialize together, but got no response other than "not interested" from the three or four traditionally black organizations.
I would have liked to hear it had gotten better.
