Simple. Because being Greek is a lifetime commitment.
If you join the band or hall council and it sucks, you can quit. It's not a big deal. Greek membership should not be that way.
No NPHC member can join their first semester, and overall, the number of members that continue to show commitment to their groups as alumni is far greater than that of NIC or NPC. I don't think this is a coincidence.
So if you ask why it's not treated like other extracurriculars, it's because it's NOT like other extracurriculars.
