On my campus the NPHC's have coming out "party". They just recently had their coming out party and even invited my chapter to come take in it but many of us couldn't go bc we had an emergency EC meeting....and I do know by the time the coming out "party" was going on, we were hungry and wanted food. Although one of my sisters did go and she said it was very interesting. I also know, on my campus, not sure if it is how other NPHC's run their program, but the people they recruit do not know who they are being recruited by until the day of the coming out "party".
Note: Reason party " " is because on my campus we are encourge not to call an event a party. so just going by those lines bc I am use to it
