Only time will tell.

This is it - according to a brief conversation I had with one of our national officers, more than just KS and the Phi Delts weren't in approval of the way NIC was heading, so they decided to do something about it, assuming that once they proved successful others would follow . . . hence the new FLA etc.
I think a major issue is that the top 10 fraternities in the NIC comprise more than 50% of total chapters, while accounting for less than 25% of the voting power etc. I think, on a certain level, it became an issue of larger nationals paying for educational programming that only benefitted the smaller nationals, as much of the training was done in-house for the larger.
We'll see how it works out - it made a lot of sense when described to me by a higher-up.
