Greek Life and the Student Government (ASUN) told those who were interested in expansion for these various groups to form interest groups, and create their own community, and when the campus was interested in expansion, GL would make this known and whichever NPC, NPHC, IPC or other GLO's otherwise not under an umbrella org who were interested in expansion to our campus could present themselves and the interest groups would/could be chosen to become colonies. Or not. Either way, the groups exist, they aren't considered to be a part of Greek Life, but they probably will be in the future when the campus opens for expansion and are selected to colonize.
This is how at least two of the IPC GLOs on campus came to campus within the past several years, and some of the MCG GLOs as well. NPC, I don't know.....that was before my time.
The interest group that I was invited to join is an interest group for a specific GLO that has existed on our campus in the past. The group has been in existence and active for a few years now.
I don't know if this is the norm, but that's how it's done here. I know that the new service org that I joined is interested in re colonizing Alpha Phi Omega and APO National told them to form an interest group under a name of our choosing (We're Green and Blue Service Organization at the University of Nevada), become active, and then take things from there after that with APO with our school's authorization.
I hope that this makes sense.

That was fast. It's been what, a few days, and you're already "Philanthropy Chair".
