YES.
OP - If you are speaking of trying to start a new NPC organization, that decision is left up to Panhellenic and the existing four sororities - in consultation with their inter/national organizations and the campus administration. There has been some discussion, but it has all be VERY informal. The campus will not open up for extension in the very near future.
And even if they do open up say this fall and pick a new NPC group in spring, they probably wouldn't colonize until Fall 09. (That is if they were to bring it up in Panhellenic this week and move quickly.) And at that point it is up to the colonizing sorority to interview and pick its new members. They don't have a "sign up" sheet. So there would still be no guarantee of membership - even if there is a group of interested women.
Now, if you are thinking of just starting up a new general student organization that isn't tied to any inter/national group, have at it. It will still be a tough road to gather interest and do everything you need to do to qualify as a registered student group. Check with the Student Activities Office to get a list of groups that have already been formed and are looking for new members. There might already be a group of people out there who share a lot of the same values and interests that you have.
Good luck!
