I agree with the doing a service project together and that sort of thing. As for the stepping, please note one thing. It's something that is unique to the NPHC, and I, as an individual, find it really intriguing and wanted to learn how to do it. We were paired during a greek week event with Omega Psi Phi and an NIC fraternity, and the Qs said, let us teach you how to step. We were all excited and it really turned out to be fun and something NEW. They gave us a background on the stepping and the cultural aspects, etc., and then they taught us some moves that we incorporated together for the talent show. We won! And the reason I think we won was that the Qs were willing to teach us something we didn't know. We taught them a few D Phi E songs, which also got incorporated into the act. It was really fun.

Mind you, this is just my opinion, and you know what they say about those....but both sides of the fence (NPC v. NPHC) have to want to have relations, and it's not always just the NPC group that doesn't want to do that. One NPHC sorority, which will remain nameless because I don't believe in publicly calling them out, as their behavior was not a good reflection on their great organization, refused to do a greek week talent piece with an NIC or NPC group. One girl, and I quote, said "they don't deserve to "step" with us..."

Again, just some thoughts.
