Exactly. It has nothing to do with our history/NM period/anything.
So if a non-NPHC group is holding one, they're really just jacking it because they think it looks cool (which I feel is the translation of "we're paying homage.") Call it what it is. It's not homage. lol.
I tend to have the same opinion regarding non-NPHC orgs imitating other NPHC traditions (i.e. the jackets, line numbers, etc.)
