Yes, these handsigns and calls (and stepping) are not official components of NPHC orgs but they are some of the more visible traditions of NPHC orgs. That's why they are easily picked up by other orgs and many NPHCers hold onto them as a visible part of our identities.

Right, and I think it's fair to say that a lot of newer GLOs, especially those targeted towards African Americans or marketed as MCGLOs, do take it from the NPHC. However, there is ALSO a reasonable window of doubt that they simply have NPCs or IFCs on their campus that do it as well, and took the tradition from them.
