?? Re the bolded: Are you saying some fraternities and sororities don't know where they have inactive chapters, or that they are unwilling to make it easy for others to find where they have inactive chapters? If it's the latter, a Baird's or similar book is only going to be as good as the information supplied to the editors, and it may be out of date by the time its published. If it's the former, then those GLOs have bigger problems to deal with.

I suspect 33girl is right that Greekdom is just too big and varied now for something like an updated Baird's to be as accurate or comprehensive as it should be. And with what's available on the internet, it probably isn't worth the effort.
