We don't have a Phi Mu chapter here, but I know we had a girl that was a Phi Mu transfer from somewhere and was on EBoard for Pan. I want to say she was the secretary... Look into this as an option.

That doesn't seem right to me. She's an NPC woman, but as someone who is not affiliated on your campus any of the decisions made by Panhellenic Exec wouldn't affect her, right? So it doesn't seem to make sense to let her have a hand in them. Being a PX is one thing, she wouldn't shape policy about greek life on campus, but letting an unaffiliated woman on the Panhellenic Exec Board seems like the same thing as letting someone who's a student at [for example] UT Dallas serve on the student government at UT Arlington. They're both 'University of Texas' students, but the membership doesn't quite transfer, she's not directly affected by the decisions, and she's probably not contributing monetarily to greek life there - at least not in the amount that an affiliated woman is.
If the decisions aren't directly affecting you, you shouldn't have a say in them, it's like... representation without taxation .

I would say it's right - her org may not have been on our campus, but she is still in a Panhellenic org. Being on Pan was like being in a sorority in its own right sometimes - we did things together that were just us (I was delegate for my local), and she was welcomed by everyone. She did an amazing job. She contributed time to fundraisers, supported all the chapters, and the way I see it, was even more a credit to her org for all she did to help the others on our campus. This woman exemplified Panhellenic spirit in a way not many women get the opportunity to.
