Why did the fraternity choose to revoke extension membership in the first place? Was it not accomplishing what it was intended to accomplish?

I think extension membership in some form would be a great idea, especially for cases of Community or Junior Colleges. I currently work at a Community College, and it would be a wonderful thing to have a chapter there, but I know that with the high turnover rate it would be really difficult to keep it going and to even get it started. However, it would be nice if those students could affiliate with a nearby school, so those that are interested would have the opportunity to seek membership (I've had students come up and ask me about it).

If the goal of extension membership is to form a new chapter at the affiliated school though, I'm not sure it would be a positive thing for 2 year schools.

I do remember a conversation where APO was not looking to have chapters at 2 year schools,
