This is a major difference between sororities and fraternities...this whole approval stuff. I can only speak for Beta Chapters, but one of the things that our chapters and our General Fraternity strive for is self governance. That's one of the goals of our Men of Principle initiative. Now granted some chapters are immature, but to make more rules and regulations isn't going to change that, and if you have to get everything approved anyway, it doesn't really develop any leadership/creativity b/c some advisor is going to have to give the go ahead anyway...why not just let the advisory team make up the shirt slogans thus saving everyone time and effort?
