Sounds like a cool idea in theory.

NPHC orgs often have members from other campuses attend collegiate chapter events if it is not against chapter or national policies (national trumps chapter) and there are no risk management issues associated with it. For campuses where the NPHC org does not exist, it is not uncommon for members to find a nearby collegiate AND graduate chapter to continue some level of activity and keep their "presence in the pipeline." The particulars depend on the organization's policies and procedures.

People REALLY need to use their national headquarters. What else are you paying dues to them for?
