Say this DOES happen: A girl transfers to her new school and the new rules state that she can join another NPC since her new school doesn't have XYZ. She joins ABC, but then her a chapter of XYZ colonizes at her school. What happens then? I'm wondering if that's the reason NPC's going to give for not changing the rules.

Well I have to admit the chances of that happening compared to the more common senarios I was speaking of in my post are slim to none. But the thing is she FORMALLY withdrew her affilation to XYZ, it doesn't really matter what her status is with XYZ since she is NOW an ABC.
In the hypothetical contract, her conditions for release would be to remain silent about her "sacred" knowledge of XYZ and to never be a part of it again no matter what. She may feel that her orginal loyality lies with XYZ but she gave up the privledge of being one to be an ABC. We should also understand, abeit precious and extremely important, our organizations are so much more than the secret rituals and meaning. They make it "special" for us to unify with our sisters under a common ideal and shared experience. But they were NOT the primary reason why social sororities were founded. Because if it was really all about that...I should be able to know the ideals of the sorority before joining, right? And I hold my sorority initation very dear, but it will never hold a candle to any religious ceremony I choose to particpate in.
I'm sure there is a reason, beyond what I am proposing, why NPC sees the one memeber ship rule...but the only way to be a lasting insitution is to change with the times. Even Christianty has evolved and it has God on its side.
