Question to all:

Does local or national affiliation play a role in advisor selection?

For example, say Lucy Local is up for a Greek Life Advisor position against Natalie NPC and Nathan NIC. Would Natalie and Nathan have a bigger edge over Lucy because she's part of a local? I'm sure it would have to depend on the campus, but I'm not sure how effective it would be for someone to be in a leadership position who is unfamiliar with national (NPC/NIC/whatever) guidelines.
