I don't know about fraternities, but I know that Alpha Chi Omega, Kappa Alpha Theta and Sigma Kappa had chapters at Datmouth where the chapter members voted to go local and became Xi Kappa Chi, Epsilon Kappa Theta, and Sigma Delta, respectively. I believe (at least in the case of SK becoming SD) that they took offense to our ritual and among other things, didn't like the rules that being National entailed. I thought the others were the same.

Also, Dartmouth has chapters of AXiD (began as a local), Tri Delta, Kappa, Alpha Phi, and KD.
