I found another article that clearly showed Terri as a woman (http://bachelor.wabash.edu/issues/2003s/issue6.pdf). I've heard a Region VI staff member describe them as a co-ed chapter that just doesn't happen to have any female brothers.
That's a fairly accurate description of them, I think.

I have no idea where the last AMC@CS was in either VI or X/XI (XI has never had one, the last AMC@CS in Region X predates the X/XI split by at least a decade). I'm not counting Rose Hulman for VI even though there was one year (semester?) when they fit that definition. There were only something like 6 women taking classes there and they lived in dorms at another college.
I wouldn't count Tau Lambda (Rose-Hulman) either, as it wasn't single-gender by choice. I honestly do not know how long it took our chapters to go co-ed. I'm confident in saying that most of Illinois (at the time) went co-ed right away, if they weren't already jumping the gun. I'd assume Indiana, with it's large number of inactive chapters, probably did "co-ed or die". No idea about Michigan, though.
