It sounds like because of R M that Chapters are being closed because of the Insurance expense.
Oldest or less than oldest. Rightly so.

Gamma Chapter of LXA was closed, and is still closed. It is Our actual Oldest Chapter as Alpha at Boston Un. was still and is still in continuation of oldest Running Chapter?

While All GLOS want to be on Campi Flag Ship Schools there is a lot that goes into it besides Un. Of ?!

If they screw up, LXA will go in and check to see what is happening. But Mine and many Brothers dont agree with situations such as Alfred Un. NY We did not back them. They did nothing, a Local did and all suffered for it.

Most GLOs will abide by School Restrictions and that is wrong.

A blanket Suspension by a single Member should not be damning to the whole Chapter.

Individuals are stupid, the rest of the Members may not have a clue what is going on!

The oldest chapter of LXA?

I think that the W&J chapter of Beta is the oldest continuous chapter of any fraternity. Founded in 1842 and has been open since.

Read, LXA Chapter!

LXA was Not started until 1909!

Because of the days of old, it ended up, that Gamma was the oldest LXA Chapter and that is still under discussion!

Alpha Was The Founding via the Founders that is all!

The Tau chapter thing was uhm . . unusual . . . there were a lot of Tau Alumni involved in the Memorial Foundation/headquarters thing . . . my impression was that the alumni influence of Tau actually worked against the chapter. . .

I am not saying they didn't deserve to have their chapter pulled but it looked some non-Tau alumni may have actually got a kick out of it.

You could be right though, Zeta could get more leeway by virtue of who they are.
