moxiegrrl,
as shadokat said, once there is "proper authority" establishing your campus open for expansion, the typical process is that the NPC will put an announcement in the expansion bulletin. Then NPC groups will submit proposals, and then usually the campus picks 2-4 groups to come to the campus and present. then, depending on the campus, each sorority votes on their choice, sometimes with other votes from campus stakeholders.
i am sure many groups will be very excited about the opportunity, for all of the reasons you mentioned before! hopefully there will be many groups to choose from, and since the process can take anywhere from a few weeks to a few months, there is plenty of time to convince people that a smaller group may be the way to go.
again, there are wonderful and unique things about each group, regardless of their sizes. there might be a group that really seems to be aligned with the values of the women on your campus. or another way might be to mention that smaller sororities have a ton of experience with colonizing at schools in "white space" - a campus with a small greek life where there aren't many alumnae in the region.
i loved reading your post, and kddani's too. that's the whole point of these threads - there are strengths and positive reasons to bring EVERY NPC group to campus. when we highlight the ones that extend beyond typical selection factors, the playing field naturally begins to level itself!
