Good idea.
This happens on some campuses. For the record, no one said it was a hopeless cause and that there's always a great divide on every campus.
We did joint programs on my campus but only after befriending people who so happened to be in the NPC or IFC. The befriending part is important because it requires people talking and relating to each other on a people level, Greek level, and then learning and understanding the NPHC and NPC or IFC similarities and differences. Not just orgs joining forces to fill some diversity quota or to say "we tried/did it," which I think happens in too many instances.
You know you love me . . .
