risk management, and hazing. I am a little leary of saying financial problems because if a chapter doesn't have a good financial advisor, it is really easy for even the "best" chapter to have problems with finances. Remember- the treasurer is usually only 20 years old and a full time college student.
I remember when I was in college and a sorority decided to close, the remaining "actives" were given alumnae status, however I believe that the national officers that worked on the closing helped the women form into an official "club" on campus. So while they were no longer a member of the WPA (the NPC org on campus), they still had club meetings and had activites as a group. The club ended up disbanding when the last alum graduated. basically they turned into a mini-alumnae chapter (since we were a small college town with no real alumnae chapters within an hour of us).
I was always impressed that the national officers helped them do this, rather than just dropping them cold (as we all know sometimes happens).
