Taking in existing groups

Taking in existing groups hasn't completely died. I know of at least one charter in the last 10 years that came from an existing group on the campus. They still went through the Petitioning process, but a lot of things got quicker...

As for groups back in the 1950s, Beta Sigma Alpha was actually fairly common for aligning groups, I've also heard of Omega Phi Alpha (this was before Omega Phi Alpha sorority), other permutations of the letters and alo B. U. S. T. A for the group at University of Texas.
