This is what is bothering me: According to Miami's Fall Grade Report, Tri Delta had 104 members. How many actually took the sisters and broke RMF? Was it sanctioned by the chapter? It was certainly the wrong thing to do, but it is bothering me that a chapter with 98 years of history is shut down due to a handfull of actives. Why couldn't they have had a membership review? Punish the sisters who committed the infraction (early alumn status or expulsion), let the sisters who didn't have anything to do with it stay active, and let the pledges go on to become actives.
To be honest, I had the same questions last year with Sigma Sigma Sigma's decision to close their Missouri State chapter and Alpha Kappa Lambda's decision to suspend their Truman State chapter for 2 years.
Again, I am not trying to criticize, just question.

I've gotta tell you that it's not just the NPC groups that are being tough on drinking infractions. If you remember, 6 of the 8 sororities at Towson were put on probation for one or two members in each group drinking on bid day. The vast majority of the members in these chapters were completely innocent, but Towson imposed major probation restrictions like no social activities of any sort for nearly a year. No hazing was involved and each guilty member was sanctioned individually as well. I'm not saying that all of this isn't overboard, but it appears to be the current climate.
