As GammaZeta pointed out, at one time in the passed years, LXA was in very bad straits financially. It then has a trickle down theory. Lack of money is a death knell as so it would seem.
But remember, these are a lot of people who are paid a lot less than they could make in the open market. The Grand High Zeta are not on the payroll and still do a trmendous amount of work for Us-LXA.
The ELC program has many members over the years and I beleive usually they last about 2 years and move on. Some may not have been as good as others, but they too were on a mission.
They visited chapters and worked with them. If they found problems, they tried to point them outwork with them and reported to IHQ. If the chapter did not follow the suggestions and carried on as usual after they left then, whose fault is that?
No one at IHQ should have to be a baby sitter as the members are supposed to be adults of sorts.
There is no simple answer to be found anywhere.
But at this point in time, the New Executive staff have turned things around by making hard decisions. We are now in a financial plus for the first time in a very long time.
I have worked with them and they are nothing but devoted Brothers (What I said, Brothers), who are working hard to get everything on not only an even keel, but in a much more comforable possition.
Honky made an excellent point about Alums. The Undergrads are our future base and they will them become Alums.
It takes: 1-2-3-4 Alums who can be a base in working with their local Zeta to advise and work with them. It is also a needed thing for the High Rho to be strong in working with Alums to keep them interested and working with their Zeta. Is it easy, hell no. Ask any Alum on GC!
Ask any Alum on GC who work with their Zetas and see what they have done.
Many on here that I should mention are :
docroc, Ottor, jono, LXAAlum, lifesaver, JoinerLXA, john1082, myself and many others.
