It also might have to do with the amount of resources the sorority has nationally. A smaller sorority they might say "keep going till you have XX members, then we will colonize you" simply because they do not have the womanpower to do the interviews and such.

The only time I can recall the national coming in, interviewing & picking girls on our campus was when one of the groups closed the chapter and immediately recolonized. The other 2 NPC groups who came in waited till the local groups got to 30 or so on their own (quota was 50) then they made them a colony. They did rush and everything the same as the established sororities.

From what you have passed on, it kind of sounds like A Xi D is looking at this as a from the ground up expansion rather than a colonization of an existing local.
