However, if an NPC sorority were to advertise itself as serving the needs of white women, it would be labeled as blatantly racist. Not to dredge up a whole different argument, but there are many reasons the NPC cannot and does not label itself as such.
My take: NPC sororities offer a "traditional" sorority experience, one that began with affluent white women but is now open to all women who are looking for the specific type of sorority experience that the NPC can offer. While that may appeal predominantly to white women today, it is by no means strictly limited to white members, and NPC chapters vary in their ethnic, economic, and geographic diversity, depending on the location and demographics of the school the chapter is located.
