If I recall, the student body president is black...and a Phi Mu at Ole Miss. But if I recall from the photos, yes there are black women in quite a few of the NPC sororities on campus...
Correct me if I am wrong

No, that's at Bama. In a thread where she was mentioned, I was corrected for thinking that they were interchangeable :-)

Oh, man, I am clearly quite confused.

Kappa Alpha Theta and Phi Mu both currently have AA members at Ole Miss. Possibly other chapters, too. In the 70's, I clearly remember NPC chapters at Ole Miss that had members of Chinese, Hispanic, and Middle Eastern parentage.

Mississippi has an interesting ethnic mix -- not all blonde, blue eyed WASPs! There are many Chinese and Lebanese residents, especially in "The Delta" area. Not huge numbers, but the population of Mississippi is just shy of 3 million, so everyone stands out.

True! There were several Chinese girls who were Greek at Mississippi State in the seventies--I particularly remember 2 sweet Zeta sisters, one of whom also cheered.
