That pretty much rules out locals at the UW -- but if the local sororities had this group that they were a part of, they could claim that that counts as their national group and thus could be recognized.

that's true.. although I'm still discombobbulated by it!
Sure, it is an umbrella group, but would it really have some kind of weight if there is nothing "behind" the umbrella group?
Like most NPC sororities have some kind of "nationals", and on top of that, they are part of the NPC, which also has it's own constitution, rules, etc.
This "umbrella group" of locals seems just like a name and nothing more (at least that is what I'm getting from their website.)
Their website also says under the "requirements" that in order to be a member, they have to be a "true local, having only one chapter".. so if they decided to expand, wouldn't that disqualify them for the "umbrella group"?
hehehe.. maybe I'm just making this way more confusing than it really is!!!
