Re: Other GC members from closed chapters?
Sallie,
Your experience is like mine. I was completing my year as a leadership consultant when my chapter (at Mizzou) was closed in 1975.
Even if there is not a local alumnae club the fraternity would surely love to have you serve on the province or national committee level.

[I am wondering how many other people on GC are from closed chapters. I am a DDD from Michigan State and our chapter closed about three (?) years after I graduated. Although we were not one of the "top" groups on campus, I had the best sorority experience, was very involved, and it broke my heart when our chapter closed. I was a national volunteer at the time and the had the dubious "privilege" of being in the meeting at Convention with the Executive Board when the decision was made to close the chapter. Not an experience I would ever wish on anyone.
After being so involved during college, it has been very disappointing to have no real alumna involvement. DDD is not big in Michigan like it is in many other states. There is only one other chapter about four hours away and there are no active alumnae groups in this part of Michigan. Because the MSU chapter is closed, there is no house to go back to at Homecoming. etc.
