Especially if the local and the NPCs core principles didn't match up.

That's how I feel. My sorority is over 80 years old now, one of the orgs on campus is having their 100th anniversary this year- that's an old local! And while I have tremendous respect and tremendous appreciation for the NPC orgs, I'd be devastated if Tau Delta became something else, or if our campus was told we must be NPC/NIC or not exist. As far as I'm aware, this has never been proposed, but the local loyalty is very deeply entrenched and seen as part of our campus culture and history.
