I agree completely with the sentiment, but you have to realize that some of the issue is self-segregation. In a system where one or two black women going through NPC rush is a big number, it's not surprising that the system has less diversity than one where ten or twenty -- or fifty -- black women rush.
Hopefully this event is a catalyst for both (1) more NPC sorority women realizing that, like it or not, most of the rest of the world is more integrated than their sororities are, if that is the major issue at play here, and (2) for more women of color to realize that they can be accepted in the NPC system and deciding to try it out.
