There are really 2 issues here. The first is, a chapter (or a large group of women in the chapter) of a national sorority "shopping" for a new national sorority. The second is, a NPC sorority accepting for membership initiated members/chapter of another national sorority.
On the first issue, almost everything that others and former members have said why the former KBG chapters were justified in shopping for a new national sorority, has at one time or another occurred in my small national sorority. Fortunately, instead of taking the easy way out and giving up, the chapters which have been most frustrated have had members step up to the plate and help the sorority become better. For example, one chapter wanted nationals to provide the leadership training that had been lacking for years -- the active/alum members of this chapter basically helped form the leadership training program we now have, then helped establish our leadership conferences, and continue to volunteer with leading the leadership training.
For the second issue, I started a new thread -- so flame away on the new thread.
