If we voted no, she could very well override it and say yes. It's a little discouraging to say it's up to us, and then someone else [who is not at all active in the Greek department] makes their own decision. Although our NPC adviser mentioned that if the orgs selected to present were made aware of this, they would side with the decision of NPC. Not sure about that, anyone know?

I would think that the orgs to present should be made aware of everything you mentioned - it was a tie vote, tie broken by someone who is not knowledgeable in Greek life, the groups that are there can't get to total. Even if the school doesn't tell them that expressly, they'll hear it through the grapevine.
After knowing all that, I don't think any group's decision would be a question of "siding" with NPC - it would just be common sense. It doesn't sound like a good opportunity. Nothing against your campus, it just seems that the climate right now isn't good for colonizing another NPC group.
Are the two groups of girls women who have previously gone through rush, or are they the kind who are saying "we have something wonderful and different" without checking what's there to begin with? Would they be amenable to a national social/professional or social/service sorority?
