If you went national, they would probably require your numbers to increase.

If you've heard people on campus saying "[yourfraternitynamehere] - WTF is that? I never heard of them" or saying explicitly that they didn't join because you were local, then look into colonizing a national.

But if there are nationals on your campus in the same boat you are, or locals on your campus that are doing fine - then it has nothing to do with your local status.

Any chance you would be willing to be absorbed by a national along with one of the other fraternities?
