Actually Kevin, as a TKE alumni I am not a proponent of the OMG WE NEED CHAPTERS EVERYWHERE OR SIG EP WILL OVERTAKE US IN TOTAL CHAPTERS!!!11111 approach. TKE has focused so much on expansion at the expense of maintaining the chapters it has. Honestly I believe TKE has so many chapters that they don't have the manpower to keep track of them all. I would rather cut the bottom-feeder chapters and put the resources into decent chapters and colonies with potential. Not all our chapters suck, however. Not that you said that, but a lot of people don't know any better.
