Thanks for the thoughts, OPhiAGinger. We have been trying to figure out what is causing the whole situation, and their story is that they are not getting support from Nationals (even though our National Chair herself went down to help work things out with pan-hell and recruitment) and as a non-NPC sorority they can't make their numbers on campus. (Like it DOESN'T have to do with them being shady little....grr....) Anyway, they tell different stories to everyone....they told us that the various campus orgs were pushing them to become NPC (not the case when we talked to them) and told NPC we had basically abandoned them. They told the other chapters their alumnae support their decision, but the alumnae are e-mailing me in tears or finding out through other sources. We're currently doing exactly what you had suggested and contacting EVERY member of the chapter about the decision they are making. We've even had a meeting with NPC National Expansion chair (which really didn't help, but now they know our perspective at least, and we know what they've been told.) I don't blame NPC, but I do have a problem with the way their campus NPC handled the situation acting like the chapter was a local. Unfortunately I know it is the girls--particularly the chapters e-board--to blame. Hopefully we will get some kind of response from members not wanting to dissaffiliate. Cross your fingers!
