We're kind of wondering if we could be just a local sorority and not be affiliated with the school. Like hold all of our events off campus. I mean, if we're not doing anything on campus I don't see why it would be a problem.

I am very impressed that you have written a constitution!
As a member of an NPC sorority, I will tell you - our colony has a local philanthropy and service project (in addition to the national ones), a local mascot, and colony/chapter bylaws (perhaps you could modify your constitution to fit this criterium). I have seen other chapters of my sorority who also have a local color in addition to the national colors. Please don't think that you will lose all your hard work if you go national. There are many benefits to going national, including rich traditions and rituals.
