Correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't there's anything stopping someone who's been BID by and NPC, but decides for whatever reason not to INITIATE from later joining an NPHC....

I guess this question needs to be asked (and I know it's sorta been answered by tld's thread...)...is it taboo to rush NPC and decide it's not for you, and then persue NPHC...is it sort of on the same level as persuing one NPHC, and getting nowhere, and then persuing another??? I understand if no one can/wants to answer this question.
i think it depends on the NPHC member... if someone came to me interested in my org and said:

Scenario A: I pledged an NPC, dropped my letters because i see [NPHC org] is what i really want... i'd be really hesitant and skeptical. i'd want to watch them a little. i'd lean to the side of not recommending them for membership - you know, questioning loyalty, etc. but also since i understand a LOT more how NPC rush works (i mean you ARE making a decision within a WEEK as a FRESHMAN)... i'd at least THINK about it. but if a soror came to me and said, "what you think of so-and-so?" don't think that i wont put the biz out there.

Scenario B: (after they became a member of NPHC) hey, by the way, i was an XYZ (NPC org) and here's what happened... well, @zz kicking would occur, verbally, physically, in some way because that makes you a LIAR and who wants a LIAR as a sister/soror?


Again, depends on the person how'd they react. Of course, since yall know my situation, i feel like im a little more tolerant. The next NPHC member may say "If you aren't down for XYZ from day one, then i can't mess with you - sorry."

Then of course, depends on campus culture, location, etc. I can't imagine if, for example (and here goes the train wreck) the HU Pike boys decided, hey i wanna pledge ABC, Inc. now because they're what's hot on the yard... that ABC (or any of NPHC) would be there with welcoming arms.
