That's really kind of comparing apples and oranges though.
There are campuses with a formal recruitment where the smaller-nationally sororities are doing fabulously and the bigger-nationally groups are struggling. There's a big difference between PNMs picking a group for themselves and campuses picking a group for the whole Greek community's benefit.
The reason NPC is recommending campuses look at something other than formal rush is to benefit all of Panhel - not just certain groups. It's to increase overall membership, not just help out the smallest chapters on campuses.
NPC can't help at this point in the way you are suggesting without some sort of expansion moratorium for the bigger groups, which is about as opposite from what NIC does as you can get. The other alternative - I'm sorry, but I don't think that smaller groups should be able to expand anywhere they want like NIC groups do just because they're smaller nationally. That's crap. They chose to join NPC and follow all of NPC's rules. If any of the smaller groups don't want to follow NPC's expansion policies, they can always renounce their membership.
