I know the scenario you described is rare, but I had a pretty similar experience. I went to exclusively black schools until I was in 4th grade, and even when I went to racially mixed (50/50 black/white) schools I didn't have any exposure to black fraternity or sorority members. And I grew up in The Black Mecca! I saw people with license plates on their cars, but I didn't know what the letters meant - I just knew they were greek letters.

It wasn't until I unearthed my sister's old yearbooks from her days at an HBCU -- during my first year of college at age 19 -- that I became aware of the NPHC orgs.
