I'm just curious for the sake of being curious - if an NPC chapter was "released", could another NPC absorb it?

Could they if enough time passed with the chapter operating as a local that all the members initiated into the "old" org had graduated?

Sure, because the members being installed would come from that local.

That was what happened at Carnegie Mellon. The Chi Omega chapter closed, but the women continued to operate as a local for about 15 years and then they affiliated with Alpha Chi Omega. All of the alumnae of the local were eligible for initiation into Alpha Chi Omega except those that had been initiated into Chi Omega.

Once members have been initiated into one NPC group they are not allowed to be initiated into another NPC group.
