But do the men or women who join after the chapter "goes underground" understand that they are not part of the inter/national organization? That their GLO experience may be limited to just this group? That their membership is not recognized by HQ and "real" (for lack of a better word) members of the GLO.

My guess is that those who do, just don't care about the alumni aspect (after college) of Greek life on the larger level (inter/national) and join for the specific brotherhood of the particular group.
It probably depends on the group and how they present their relationship to that parent organization. I thought there was a storyn on here a while ago where some group was telling pnms that they were xyz, when they actually had their charter revoked and were operating illegally. But that could have just been a scary dream...?
