If they separate themselves from NPC/IFC greeks then this is what causes segregation.
Participation or not in 'Greek Week' has more to do with culture than race. I know that when I was in school, the NPHC orgs had their own 'week' (normally around their Founders Day) where open and closed service and social activities were performed each day. The activites performed during the NPC/IFC Greek Week did not appeal to the NPHC groups as a whole and often conflicted with calendars that include many off-campus obligations.
