Follow what money? My Sorority doesn't prohibit NPC members because we are following money. In fact, we could probably make more money if we accepted the Black women over the years who joined an NPC sorority and then tried to pledge Delta.

I don't disagree with anything you've said here.
My point was that NPC groups will take former NALFO members because the idea of lifelong commitment has very little to do with how/why NPC groups make decisions. That was where "follow the money" came in. You bring up additional reasons we see other groups as unimportant or lesser, and I think they are all true.
