As a member of a smaller NPC sorority, I am frustrated when no one has ever heard of us before along with the fact that we aren't at that many schools where greek life is huge.
I am happy when any sorority starts a new colony, but I would especially love to see the smaller NPC sororities start more colonies, especially at larger schools. However, being smaller also means smaller financial resources to do this.
Anyone have some thoughts?

I don't think there is going to be too much expansion in the future. At some schools the demand isn't there. According to info on the rush threads, there are many GLOs that are having a tough time recruiting. Some groups didn't get any pledges this semester.
If the school does have the demand like at a Big 10 school and there are a few hundred girls that go unmatched then you hit the next hurdles. Housing and money. At some places the homes cost over a million bucks. So if you want to compete with the existing groups you are going to have competitive housing.
A hundred years ago if a national wanted to expand it probably wasnt that tough because there was a ton of demand and not a lot of competition. Now its just the opposite.
Would it be possible to target local groups that already have members, $$, and a house?
