It seems like this is more prevalent among fraternities than sororities. I'm sure it happens with sororities, don't get me wrong, but it seems we here about it more with fraternities. Why does everyone think that is?
I know that when a KD house is shut dow (I haven't been part of the process but I know and have spoken to many people that have been), everything is taken by HQ and the House Corp. Usually put in storage, in hopes that the chapter will open again. But i'm sure that all the ritual stuff would be taken... though if a chapter is in a situation to get shut down, it may have a few members that would think nothing of xeroxing the ritual materials

If not xeroxing, writing down from memory what they know. I can think of one National org which has had a hard time reclaiming their possessions from a group. Especially when the group knew that HQ was on its way to collect the items and they hid them. I'm sure there's a point where some ritual may be similar, but has strayed from what it once was. When a chapter closes, it seems like HQ needs the alumnae to be supportive and help reclaim items that rightfully belong to the sorority.
