It's very confusing and frankly, it's not serving the true intent of the org's foundation. Again, switching is fine, but to me it should be done on a national level so that everyone (members and interests) is on the same page.

I hear you. I just don't think switching is fine. At all. I don't think you can be part of a national organization and just change things around to "increase numbers" on your campus. I'd rather we die out on a specific campus (and we have) and stay true to our focus/potential members then to switch up. Somehow, that seems so disingenuous.
