In fact, they do everything they can to restrict fraternities. We don't need them, but can we operate without them?
Just because you think your school IFC sucks, is that worth giving up national status? If you go local, then once you graduate, you can't be an Alum of the national organization. College is only four years (though a few more for some people). Like SouthernTKE said, why would you do that to yourselves? If my national sorority on my campus said they wanted to go local, I would have taken alumna status and walked out. You need to really think about the implications of your actions for future members or even current members.

I don't think that is their primary reason. It's just a sidebar.
