EE:
I've seen both approaches on my campus. We came in in '99 using the more traditional colony model. An HQ advisor came to campus, recruited us, put us through the Sigma Nu LEAD program, (similarly required for colonies), then he left.
It took us 3 years to hit campus average in terms of membership, and we finally chartered in '02.
PKA on the other hand came in in '01 with a core of guys. As I recall, they had several paid HQ consultants available for that first semester. They hit campus average with their first rush. They also transferred in strong leaders from other schools. They chartered in (I think) 2 semesters.
We were founded during a hiatus in new colonization activity. In fact, we were the first new chapter Sigma Nu founded in 3 years when we received our charter in '02. Since then, we've founded quite a few chapters comparatively. I'm not privy as to whether or not they've changed methods, but I would be surprised to hear that's not the case.
