One group was brought to our attention during the middle of fall [informal] recruitment. The Greek Director had told the girls in that group that they should go through recruitment first to make sure that they know what's already in place isn't for them. Out of about 30 girls at that time, 4 rushed that semester [and either they dropped or weren't bid]. We checked the list and none of the other names appeared to be familiar from previous semesters.
Group two came about after girls ended up not receiving bids this semester. If you've seen my post in the weird rush story thread, the leader of this group is the "let's make this happen" girl. Her and her friend, instead of joining up with the existing group of girls, rallied up the girls who didn't get bids and proceeded to start her own form of recruitment with a facebook group [including freshmen who have not been allowed to rush yet and others who have not gone through recruitment].
Each group of girls has about 50 on their respective lists [which is total]. They actually decided who they were "going to be." We quickly squashed that and told them it's a big no-no if they ever hoped to get the ball rolling.
I'm not sure about how they feel about being non-NPC. It seems to be pretty much all or nothing to them. They have a mindset of competition against each other to see which group will be permitted to go on with expansion, if it happens. "Let's make this happen" is in the Greek Director's office at least twice a week nagging her about when she'll know which organization they'll be allowed to become.
