I can't help but wonder if this is an example of missing the point completely on diversity. Instead of trying to fit NPHC orgs into an NPC/IFC mold, isn't diversity better served by working to eradicate the idea that the NPC/IFC way of doing Greek life is the standard by which to measure all Greek life?

Yes, they are missing the point completely on diversity. Yes, they should educate themselves on Greek life models that don't focus so much on a chapter house. That said, when you look at a bunch of fancy mansions full of white people and one little house of black people, it's an understandable mistake to think that the black people must be getting the shaft. It's also possible that they understand both models just fine, but they're pushing for change anyway because they think it will make them look better if the NPHC has big fancy houses.
