I think I remember reading from BootyKBG that at one time KBG was on the path to joining NPC, but then some things changed. It also doesn't help that KBG is retracting and losing chapters to NPC groups. (For their old chapter at Loyola, KBG was not allowed to recolonize it since they were not an NPC and the school decided to have NPC groups only)

I think it would be very difficult for even a well established organization to achieve the momentum needed on many campuses that would be required to "compete" in the NPC game. Recruitment methods, quotas, total, houses being required to survive on many campuses and rules rules rules! I can see where many would look at NPC membership as a set of golden handcuffs even in the best of circumstances.

I think it's much more likely that some NPC groups will eventually be absorbed by other NPC groups. It's got to be increasingly challenging in this economic climate for some groups to survive as individual entities in the long run.

Well, that's assuming that they have to compete. There are numerous campuses where SDT just does its own thing, and that's more the model I could see one of the Latina-founded orgs following.
