For example, currently at UW-Madison there's a rule that says no Greek organization that isn't affiliated with some kind of national umbrella group will be recognized. 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.
This is what the site says:
To join, you have to be
1. a recognized sorority at an accredited four year college.

If the local isn't currently recognized by their college, then they can't join USL. But if they aren't part of a national, then they can't be recognized by the college. It could be a catch-22 for lots of groups.

To me this sounds more like a NPC type of organization rather than a "National Sorority". I think it would function better as an NPC type conference...sounds like it would be easier to organize. But I don't know if it would help the locals get recognition on their campus.

What do the locals think about this? (Seems like the NPC-ers are talking more about this than they are!!)
