But they don't help if they engage in bad risk management. That was the point of my post.

And I don't think that a chapter with the burden of a huge house to fill and keep in shape is necessarily "cheaper to maintain" than a small chapter that is unhoused and not having any major problems. If a group begrudges things like sending a consultant once a year to the smaller groups, then they shouldn't have colonized at a school like that to begin with. I'd rather hear a group be straight up and say "we don't want to be at a school with under such and such enrollment" and pull out, then do a lot of bogus things to make it seem like the chapter were the bad guys if that wasn't the case and they are "justified" in closing them.
