1. I know of two local fraternities that have prospered within strong systems where every other chater was National: Adalente fraternity at Iowa State and KOT at Baylor.
2. If yours is a private school, they can require you to reamin the in IFC. If you are located at a public institution, then you can just be a student organization. Greek Life may try to bully you, but you are well within your rights.
3. National chapters going local is more common now than it used to be. Another recent phenomenon is chapters switching nationals! One example of that just happened on my campus where a TEP chapter petitioned IFC to switch to Alpha Delta Phi, and that change took place.
4. It would help us give you good advice if we knew your school and the national fraternity with which you are affiliated. I know something about the fraternities and they each have a different attitude.
