My understanding is that the housing/land situation plays a big part in it, as well as when a chapter leaves Bama, the stigma stays for a LONG time.

It's not a question of your national dragging its feet and the alums needing to push them, it's a question of what will fly at the school. If the HQ is afraid of losing a giant chunk of change by recolonizing there and the recolonization not being superduper successful, it's not gonna happen. They have to look out for the whole sorority.

Any new group that comes to Bama or LSU will have to do more than "OK" - they will have to do something that literally blows everyone else away.
