They sought recognition by another NPC organization, but that also didn't work out. All our founders wanted was national recognition with a sorority that held similar ideals. Then they found Kappa Beta Gamma. The #1 reason why girls at our school don't want to join us is because because they know we're not an NPC organization on our campus, as opposed to DZ, AST, and ASA (who just came to our campus a year ago). While we love our chapter, and we all worked hard to get where we are, our time on our campus is questionable. While I'm not personally sure about the idea of being absorbed, I can understand her frustration.

Seems like you're putting your chapter so far above your organization that you can't even see it anymore. Although not NPC, KBG is national, no? And, as such, has organizational ideals and processes. While I think chapter is important (especially on the collegiate level), it's not the be-all-end-all of greek life.
Having a tough time recruiting =/= "ZOMG THIS ORG SUCKS LETS FIND A NEW ONE!!!!!!1!!!!!!!!"
NPC chapters that are having a tough time recruiting (and there are tons of them) can't just switch organizations at the drop of a hat - they either improve their recruiting or are closed, and the members can
never join another sorority again (effectively). You guys should possibly consider what that means.
