I'm at a loss as to why Mason DOESN"T want to move, except that they like being in their own little bubble. Last semester, they voted to move. This semester, they were allowed to re-vote (don't ask me why, I'm just the advisory chair) and they voted to stay in 83.
As for other schools in the area: UVa and Va Tech both have campuses in Falls Church, but they're mainly for grad students. Do they each have 1000+ students? I don't know, but they are campuses of schools that have chapters, so they might be an option. There is also a campus of ODU out in Loudon County, just east of Leesburg that might be an option. Another one I've heard about is a christian college in Leesburg/Middleburg area, but I can't remember the name.
So, yes, I think the closest school to Mason is UMW, but they have no greek system what-so-ever, as far as I know. I'll hit the web and see if there's anything else....I just can't think of anything. UVa isn't far......2 hours, tops, same with VCU and anything else in Richmond, but they STILL don't do anything with those schools!!
As far as Frostburg goes, if they sent a contingency to GMU, did a song and dance and made home-made cookies, I don't think you could convince them to go to sectionals there. They made it very clear they were only going there if the vote had them moving to that section.
Personally, I might go myself, just to see what they're like......
