I do know a lot of locals, my only real issue is I wouldn't join one because I think having a governing body that is a national organization is good for the longevity of any GLO, and when I go back to college, I like having a place to come "home" to, and I feel better knowing that it is likely to be around for years to come because of the assitance we get from Nationals.

So if an org doesn't get assistance from a national they won't be around as long? OMG......yet another generalization in the every respect of the word. There are many a local that have existed longer than many a national chapter. There are quite a few in my state alone that have been around for 100 years +.
I don't think that a chapter of a national glo has a better chance of existing longer than a local. Look at all of the hazing issues with so many chapters of nationals closing. There is no guarantee.
I'm sorry to sound harsh but its true......
Just remember...every national was at one time just a "local."
