That depends on each individual group's circumstances. A public university has absolutely zero control over (for example) a local fraternity/sorority with no house or off campus housing. These types of groups generally don't exist with national organizations -- too much liability there. Universities and national organizations have a mutual interest in policing the chapters.
Locals vary A LOT. While Tau Delta, I'm sure is very much aware of its risk management situation, there are many locals with absolutely no risk management awareness.
National organizations force upon their chapters.
I agree, many locals do a great job of self-policeing, but if they fail to do so, often there is no one else that can step in. With national organizations, this is simply not the case.
