FRAT is not a bad word among NPHC fraternities.

And I know a lot of NIC men who use the word frat, too. I think there are a lot larger issues plaguing the Greek System than nicknames, but I can understand being sensitive if you don't like using the word or hearing it.

If your going for a NPHC do your your research:checkout any books about them, visit their national websites, talk to older and current members but show discretion! Go to any programs they host on campus and try to do volunteer work with them.Make sure you choose for the right reasons (not who throws the best parties, whose known on campus, etc.) and choose what you would be a best fit for not what your friends are a best fit for. Hope this helps from one aspirant to another.
