This just seems so tricky.
Beta Sigma Phi is non-collegiate.
It's a social sorority that seems to be exempt from Title IX but allows dual membership with other social sororities. It is not a service sorority, professional sorority, or honor society.
It is non-collegiate, but allows institutional chapters.
Even though one could very well be in a social sorority and BSP, chances are on most campuses one wouldn't do both unless the non-NPC org had a "hook" - like music (SAI), service (OPA), or another field of study.
I wish you luck. Expansion is tough. I wouldn't even know how to advise a student group like this, other than to advise them to intentionally be off-campus as a "mixed" chapter of collegians and women in the community.
