I don't understand how NPC sororities work

Sure. Mine did and was very successful.

The original post seems to deal with national policy, local chapter operations, and recruitment, so it seems general enough for the moment that the GL forum is probably still the best place for it.... although if it becomes a discussion specifically related to a different forum (just recruitment, or just chapter ops, for example), then the thread could be moved later.

It was in Chit Chat when I made the comment..........

Yes - there is a chance of rebuilding, BUT that also requires a mutual decision between the university & the national organization. Usually, if the circumstances of the closure are not bad (such as closing due to lower numbers or problems paying dues), the chapter is invited to re-group when the numbers support it. But, if it is something like hazing, or the like, that got the chapter closed, the university is not as likely to say "hey, come on back" - its really a complex situation.

I have seen closures that were SO unexpected that the members didn't even know HQ came in the middle of the night to remove chapter property -- and then I know of the longer processes that members are involved in and expect the closure. These are *much* better obviously as those women can expect to be given alum status and are able to continue volunteering with their org.
