I have never seen (in my limited experience) a situation where a local is benefited by being part of Panhellenic.
Usually the NPC groups want you as an associate member because it offers them a measure of control over how you Rush and when you Rush.
A popular local not bound by Panhell's rules can slaughter the NPC groups in Rush. Point one: Rush wouldn't have to be dry per se. It could be wet as hell.
I am not sure there are any other benefits of being in NPC to be honest. All they do is enforce rules that shouldn't apply to you. The frats will mix with you anyway as long as you are cute, or fun.
The only thing they might be able to do is keep you out of formal all-greek events, but honestly the frats will want you in it so there are ways around NPC dissaproval.
Girls chime in here: Is there any really beneficial reason that a local would want to voluntarily adopt NPC rules? Reasons that outweight the limitations?
