I think that man is always going to find ways to not run organizations the best way possible- Lambda Chi Alpha is no exception- no matter what policies we put in to protect against people taking personal stakes or doing things in their best interest as opposed to the group's perceived best interest.
Money Lenders/ Corrupt Priests in the Bible
Tammany Hall in the 1800's in NYC
Communist Leaders in the 1960's in Russia
French aristocracy 1700's (pre French Revolution?)
When the injustice becomes too much there is normally change or oversight in place, then over time it gets lax and things become more selfish and corrupt again. Again, Lambda Chi Alpha is no different than any other group of people. Perhaps we as a fraternity did discriminate against certain chapters, and now they want to deal with that situation in a more "fair" way.
What we are seeing is the natural cycle of an organization and the ego's of the people that lead it, combined with the will and voice of the people pulling it back to them over time.
