No. She has mentioned KKG elsewhere, and I think KD?

Over in the KD forum she was talking about KKD. Yeah, I haven't heard of that NPC either.

#1 Rule for anyone involved in a colonization, ever: YOU DON'T GET TO PICK THE NPC's.

I know that sometimes there is a push for a historically Jewish group, but even then, the applicable groups can say "no thanks" in a quick minutes.

So true. There was a campus recently that only had one group send an interest package, so it was pretty much that group or no group. You can't force an NPC to have interest.

More than one. I can think of at least two and it was the same group both times. Both campuses were lucky to have them and in one case, the other groups were a little intimidated.

I find it a little strange that a school would be exploring expansion given the disparity in recruitment number results for this school posted in this past year's recruitment thread.

That doesn't preclude expansion on any campus (and yes I looked.) New groups often increase interest in Greek Life, but struggling chapters shouldn't be the ONE reason a Greek system uses to decide not to expand.

There was also a campus that chose TWO NPC groups for stacked colonies, and the first colonizing group politely declined to formally (IE with a ceremony) colonize after a week of on-campus interviews with students.

As stated by others here, NPC Expansion for any campus is a thoughtful and gradual process.
