Oh, I can see how it happens, especially when the NPHC chapters at your campus might be all African-American. Sometimes, and this is even more true when you're only a freshman or sophomore, you aren't 100% aware of the fact that not every Greek system is exactly like yours. I've had plenty of NPHC members tell me that my organization was just for white women...
au contraire!
At my undergrad, there were a lot of people--Greeks and non-Greeks--who thought Kappa Alpha Theta was a
nationally Jewish sorority because of the fact that the vast majority of sisters were Jewish, they co-sponsored several annual events with Hillel, and they had mixers with AEPi. They obviously aren't, but that was the frame of reference my classmates had to go on.
