That just seems CRUEL and SO UNFAIR. How dare they immediately replace a chapter that old with a new group? They need more competition, but….

I don't believe cruelty and daring necessarily has anything to do with their leaving. They simply saw the handwriting on the wall. According to old greekchat NPC Chapters and Campuses listings (by irishpipes) for SMU, Gamma Phi Beta has had more than a few low-number formal recruitment runs during the past decade. It's likely they knew for awhile the campus was bringing in a new group, making it doubly hard for any struggling group to continue a numbers rebound.
