Not trying to open up a can of worms, and I admit that I don't understand most (all?) NPC policies: but, if total is 85 and all but 1 chapter are almost double the total amount, shouldn't total be raised or expansion considered?

I think VT added Alpha Gamma Delta in 2006. Maybe their Panhellenic doesn't see the need yet? I don't know.

It's a matter of the college panhellenic, but I happen to agree with you. IMHO, once every or the vast majority of chapters have reached 20% or 25% over total on a regular basis, the college panhellenic needs to take a hard look at themselves and realize that their campus is ready to add another sorority. Of course, there are extenuating circumstances, and those should also be taken into consideration.

ETA: Didn't see KSUViolets' post. Perfect example of an extenuating circumstance!
