If those Kappas tried and were denied, it still makes no sense to pay dues to a "group" but not to the org. Change happens within. I mean they can't use the name of Kappa in what they do, so what good is that?
They could have stayed in the org., still formed their clique, but worked to make changes within.
I know that in Delta you have to have a certain number of currently financial sorors to charter an additional chapter, and it increases with each additional chapter in that area. You also must show proof of being able to sustain the chapters. Maybe that is why that org. was denied a new chapter.
I am not opposed to chartering new chapters in a given area. I consider it as an expansion not a splintering. Maybe they should have approached it that way.

Yeah and it isn't uncommon to find 3 or so alumnae chapters within 20-30 minutes of each other.
I don't know Kappa's rules for chartering chapters. But splintering and paying dues for a club is silly. If you can't get a new chapter chartered, be active and try to impact the existing chapter. If you must be a member of a chapter. Then run along with your pals and do separate outtings, play cards and drink together after meetings, and do smaller service events that don't have a chapter attached to it. That's what quite a few folks do. Don't need separate dues to have cliques.
