My favorite line is that having 45 women "made it difficult to provide the full, enriching Alpha Xi Delta experience to its women." Tell that statement to my chapter of 6 that busts its butt everyday to exist....yet they EXPERIENCE Alpha Xi Delta everyday of their lives.
My fullest sympathies to Gamma Lambda collegiates and alumnae...I trust National Council made a thoughtful yet difficult decision with the best of the Fraternity at heart.
I have great fear, however, that the far reaching affects of losing a Chapter at a large SEC school will probably be detrimental to growing Alpha Xi Delta further in the south for the next generation, even if it only had 45 members.
