If NIC and NPC existed at Howard U, I was CLUELESS. (Which I was NOT). I think I can say with confidence, that although there has been an influx of white people attending HBCU, I don't think that will actually change the cultural dynamic of Greek life. Typically what happens is the white students start to assimilate into the culture of campus life of the HBCU.

I think that the addition of NPC and NIC groups (excluding Kappa and Iota) would only be a natural progression. Desegregation has not only affected HWCUs but it has had an effect on the HBCUs as well. There has been a definite increase in non-African American students at these schools. It would seem natural that those non-African American students would seek involvement in NPC and NIC groups similar to those African American students on HWCU campuses sought involvement in NPHC groups.
