Why begrudge a chapter for leaving an organization that is not providing the services it wants or needs? It has happened many times over the years to groups from NPC, NIC & AES. The reason why the AES organizations asked to join NPC was so that they COULD be more competitive. They were losing chapters regularly as teachers colleges became universities (Kent State as the best example). Kappa Beta Gamma is not the only non-NPC group with a small number of chapters. If they wish to succeed they will have to aggressively market themselves to grow sufficiently and ultimately petition NPC for some sort of status. I doubt that these women were sophisticated enough when they joined to know the significance of an NPC group. Only after joining would they have learned the differecne and disparity of support. I applaud them for wanting to improve their status, and Kappa Delta should be proud to have them.
