If he wants to be a part of the NPHC, go where the Black folks go. And not all of us are ghetto, hood rats and thugs. You would not say that about historical African Americans in the past would you? The reality is, if you or your brother are not attending HBCU's, then you won't see us a PWI because our numbers are not vast at a 50K student population.


Moreover, if folks roll with the punches because others are doing it kind of thing, then the NPHC is not for you. It is about doing the "road less traveled"--especially at PWI's. That is why it is a foreign concept to many...

Also, the greek life coordinator should have all the contact information on active chapters. Most universities request this information to do activities on the campus.

Just trying to help.

is it really that cut and dry (on the bolded)? (im trying to come up with supporting argument, but really thats all i got right now) when i decided i wanted to be part of greek life, i went where i knew greeks would be. when i decided i wanted to be part of NPHC, i went where they would be. i dunno, i jus kinda read your statement as "at PWIs if you go where the black folks go, youre bound to find some NPHCers." which was SO not the case 9:10 times. but hey im jus one person.
