It can be very difficult to get a full officer team that actually does all their tasks when that officer team is 40% of the chapter. Not to mention the chapter has to have a high % of members pay on time and maintain grades. So, there is a big difference between 2 members not paying and 4 members not paying.

At my Alma mater (and sadly my own chapter is closing when the year ends) every chapter had to do COB, even the ones that historically have never done it in the past. When I left the school had about 7k enrolled.
