Thankfully, we have a really committed advisor at Northern Colorado, a two term Chapter Consultant as advisor at Colorado State and a top notch Division Vice President for the two chapters.

While things can change quickly, I was pleased that our chapter at CSU was not one of the ones recently in trouble and that our UNC chapter has topped 50 members -- larger than it has ever been. The downside is that the UNC chapter is no longer winning as many international awards as they did a few years ago.

In the end, though, alumni support can only go so far. Advisors often don't live in the same towns at their chapters. They simply can't have a handle on everything that goes on.

It's up to the active chapter members to do the right thing.
I am actually glad to see that the Delts in Greeley are getting their numbers back up. They are a great group of guys, and that is one group you see on campus doing some good.

But, I do agree. The actives need to step up and do the right thing. But do they want to or do they know how? I think it's a combination of wanting to do the right thing and then knowing what the right thing is. Sometimes they just seem to lose their focus on the light at the end of the tunnel and tend to stray. I think, at least the UNC campus, has been straying for a couple of years now. They are just lucky there hasn't been a serious injury or death in the last few years. I just came from that campus, and being on the outside of things you really begin to notice.

I hope it's not just the Colorado campuses. There seem to be problems all over the nation as far as greeks. We just need to start quashing those things that are beginning to catch up with us and giving us a bad name.
