This is what I am having a hard time understanding. Granted anything is possible, but I have never heard of a chapter giving over that kind of authority to an active member- much less a transfer student who clearly wants to make a lot of changes.
It is not uncommon for national offices or alumni with the blessings of nationals to temporarily have unusual powers- and it is best achieved by having the chapter vote on it and thus formally accept the need for some change. But an active member in this role would be a new one for me.
If this is the ultimate answer, I am wondering if the chapter- in accordance with their by-laws- have formally given over control, or if the OP has offered his initiative and the actives have more casually- though perhaps sincerely- asked for his help.
