And now that this practice has been brought to light on a nationwide basis, any group that tries it would just be foolish.
In this exact way, having a review etc, a GLO would have to be crazy to try that again. To wait until the end of the school year, that would be a different story. I can name at least 5 GLOs who consider that policy.

I think the university would have allowed a recolonization if it would have happened immediately (i.e. this spring) and if the women would have had their housing question taken care of by the national sorority and the Delta chapter house corp. This whole thing just showed a serious lack of planning.
Last year, one of our chapters was closed with a definite recolonization date set, with cooperation of the local Panhellenic. I feel that's the way any chapter closing/recolonization should be handled - unless there's a house or such involved. I honestly don't know how that could/should be handled.

And I agree - this specific example shows a definite lack of planning!
