Actually I think this student union woman is being responsible. She realizes that there is an institutional commitment to bringing a sorority to campus, and that is a good thing. I have worked with a campus that was not interested in doing things the "NPC way" and it was awful--so I appreciate her feedback.

On the flip side, I do not see how a national sorority would require anymore time of university staff/administration than a local, other than the occasional visit from a national reprepsentative etc. There will be work required on the front end, in terms of the initial visits, but most national organizations that would consider expanding to your campus are going to see the staff and know what kind of commitment to expect.

Really what you need is permission from the proper authority, and in this case it could be the director of the student union or the dean/vp of students...whatever you have on your campus. Once that permission is granted, I think you and your sisters could carry much of the weight in terms of organizing things. Plus, you'll probably need a campus advisor if you do not have one already.

If you need any other assistance, let me know.
