Now, you will have some members who, AFTER that point, will be very dedicated to their chapter, moreso than the national org, but it's not the same as choosing your org based on the local chapter. I just don't see that happening very often, in my (admittedly limited) experience.
I don't know, but I have heard NPHCers say I joined XYZ because I didn't like the chapter of ABC. And I have heard of NPHCers waiting until alumnae, because they didn't like the XYZ chapter. At least with the latter they maintained their interest in the org as a whole, but I suspect the opposite could be true to.
