If, as he's said, their national is letting them get away with doing whatever they want to do, why should they?
I've applauded any time (well, not applauded, but for lack of a better word) I've seen a sorority or fraternity on here that screwed up be closed down even if they were one of the bigger chapters in the national org and popular on their campus. On the other side of the coin, there was a thread on here where the advisor was bemoaning some of the risk management nightmares that had been going on for years - but the chapter saw no need to change their ways. They were a big chapter on campus, bringing in lots of $$$ and the national had only given them slaps on the wrist for repeated offenses. So where would be their motivation? It had already been made clear to them by the national's behavior that as long as they kept bringing in the members and money, they had carte blanche.
There can't be one standard of behavior for the small chapters that are struggling, and one for the kings/queens of the campus or organization. If your Ole Miss chapter that has taken quota/been over total for the past 100 years screws up royally, they should get the same treatment that the chapter at BFE State with 10 girls gets if they do the same thing.
