Having never witnessed an expansion, I can't help but be confused by this. If there isn't already a reputation of sorts, how does the campus/do the sororities know which group is demographically the best fit? All the groups have fine ideals - how can the best fit be determined, and who actually determines it? Is it mutual (i.e. the campus says to ZTA, "We'd like you" and ZTA says to the campus, "We're definitely interested.")? Or is it more one-sided (i.e. strictly the campus's decision)? You'd think that simply by participating in the presentation stage the three sororities are definitely interested in the campus... but then again, maybe once they get there and see the other chapters they might change their mind (this was just an example - nothing against any org at Northwestern, of course).
Like I said, I'm completely ignorant about this whole process. But, good luck to all involved! It's a positive thing that there is enough interest at Northwestern to warrant expansion!
