What have you asked of your national organization that it has not provided you? How does it treat your chapter differently than other chapters. You said you don't care about other chapters or know about other chapters, so how would you know they are treated different?

Does your chapter teach about the national organization and its history during new member education, or is your new member education all about the local group? Do you have much contact with representatives from the national organization?

Like others have said, if you want to become a local again, make sure you can get insurance (most likely required by the school) and your school allows local groups still. Even if you try to become a student organization on campus, your school might still say no.

(Example: The KBG (non-NPC sorority) chapter at my school affiliated with KKG (NPC sorority). Alumni of KBG weren't happy and tried to recruit for a new KBG and were told non-NPC groups were not allowed on campus anymore, thus KBG has no chance of ever returning on campus)
