The point I was trying to make was not to equate anything the IFC/NPC orgs do to NPHC traditions; just to point out that they do not have "a monopoly" on these traditions between pre-LGLO/MCGLO life. I have not attended every college in the country; so I can only attest to what I have seen myself. In no way am I implying that all of XYZ fraternity/sorority does anything. Just that it is not unheard of.

Again, I am not concerned with rather so-and-so's handsign has a secret meaning or if it's official or anything of the sort. But when you have non-NPHC groups proudly showing their handsigns on threads like these, then there is no real reason to think that handsigns are simply a trivial and haphazard action just because they do not hold the same meanings that the NPHC handsigns do.
