Right, and is it possible that the person may have also been a member of an NPHC org.?

No, as NPHC president, he represented Phi Rho Eta. That much is absolutely certain.

Delta Chi was founded as a professional fraternity for Law students.

Perhaps one of the founders of Delta Chi may have also been a member of Delta Upsilon. As KyleMcGuire1983 pointed out, Delta Chi was founded (1890) as a professional fraternity for Law students. Delta Chi became a "general" fraternity in 1922. As such, duel membership in Delta Chi and a "general" fraternity would have been allowed from 1890 to 1922.

Most people aren't aware that Phi Sigma Phi national came into existence as a result of the merger of Phi Sigma Epsilon and Phi Sigma Kappa in 1985. Several chapters of Phi Sigma Epsilon decided that they didn't want to affiliate with Kappa, and instead formed their own organization, continuing to use most of the symbols of Phi Sigma Epsilon. When you visit the website, their crest is virtually identical to the one that used to hang in my chapter house.

This is a story I never heard about from anyone in Phi Sigma Kappa national, and only discovered it after I became a Greek Life adviser.
