We are chartered through the city as an official organization of the Chamber. By doing this we "somewhat legally" claim to not be a college organization therefore removing us from threat of expulsion under their rules (its hard to regulate organizations chartered outside of the college). Although, the college still comes after us frequently.
Of course, we did all of this only after being denied by the student senate (even our guys strategically voted no) and administration, but nothing was going to stop us from going underground. DKE Headquarters knew of our unique situation from the begining and has been more than supportive. And of course, the mystique of secrecy has merely perpetuated our prominence and the bonds within our chapter.
And as we are such a young chapter (only 4 years old) I am curious to see how other chapters have progressed, hence this post.
Thanks again for your info.

I don't see how chartering through the city removes the threat of expulsion. If anything it confirms that you are operating and if the school really wanted to they probably would go after you.
I think the threat of expulsion is just a bluff. My school makes the same threats to every organization that operates underground but they have never done anything. According to everything I have read, I dont think the school can do anything to you just for operating unless you are at a private school.
Is your school public or private?
