LadyLight, I think you may be confused. NPC, the National Panhellenic Conference, has rules for adding additional groups to the 26 member groups--but for a local sorority chapter to join an already established NPC sorority does not require a certain number of chapters etc.
With NPC groups on campus, the local may have to petition to those groups to open the campus to expansion, and that can be a tenuous process--but not impossible--especially at "smaller" Greek campuses.
GGirlEC--why don't you propose a "heritage team" for your sorority. This group would be charged with keeping the history updated, reviewing the old binders to discover past traditions and reintroduce them, and creating new ones. This could be a great job for newer members who may not have other responsibilities and seniors who may have limited time but you still want to keep them involved. This could be something you could coordinate in your member educator role.
