It's no different - the issue here is making generalizations about an entire class of people based on his anecdotal and limited experience.

Perhaps there would be a logical reason that (using your example) Alpha Phi never wanted to do anything on his campus - maybe in years past they were treated badly by fraternities, they were on social probation, or something like that. Someone from that sorority could tell him that and I'm sure he would say, ok, that makes sense. I looked at his question like this, only with NPHC groups instead.
He didn't turn this into a black/white thing, you did...as Glitter pointed out, NPHC does not equal black.
