To be honest, I never understood why a white person would WANT to join an NPHC or other African-American fraternity or sorority considering our history and culture.

I've always said that when and if I do meet any of the Caucasian Deltas I've heard about, I'm going to ask them why...forget where she pledged, forget where she lives and even if she's active, I want to know WHY.

I'm not going to say I'm against Caucasian members because I don't know if I'd ever be in a position to vote on a white candidate and I wouldn't want that to come back to haunt me. But I can say that, knowing how some Sorors grill prospective African-American members, if a Caucasian woman can come through, survive, not be bitter, and be TRULY COMMMITTED to our cause and identity, then she has nothing but love and respect from me.

But I digress. It may well be a case of some saying now that segregation and separate but equal is "over" you cannot have a greek org or college/university to yourself. I don't personally know any Caucasian women who are in an African-American sorority, so I can't intelligently address the dating and marriage part of the question. That's a good question. I'm interested to see what springs forth.
