The part that makes it especially silly is I can't imagine any sororities thinking about merging. TPA is (I believe) the smallest NPC sorority and it is in growth mode, so why would they give that up? AEPhi and SDT have a similar background, but they also seem to be doing just fine without interference from anyone else, so why would they want to merge?

The only change I could foresee in the membership of the NPC is allowing a Canadian sorority to join, and maybe they'd merge with an NPC sorority that isn't represented in Canada already. That is definitely feasible since there are only a handful of international sororities. But there have been threads before about the issues associated with things as unsorority-like as international banking rules that will probably keep that from happening.

There are so SO SO many NIC fraternities and some of them are really small, so I could see that being a common point of discussion among them, but I don't really see it in NPC.

I just can't understand why international banking rules would inhibit cross border sororities when there are a large number of cross border fraternities. I understand that expansion and rushing rules are considerably different between the NIC and NPC, but just can't imagine why the banking rules would be different.

There are a lot of issues with chapters across the border. It's not as easy as it may seem.
