The versions I've heard all suggest that the brothers elected a president who was in at least one if not two minority groups of whom the headquarters did not approve, so the brothers all quit, choosing not to be part of an organization that would discriminate along those lines. I haven't got a good, concrete way to confirm the story, though. There's now a local organization (coed) that is said to be descended from the breakoff group.
That is true brotherhood. It was way too recent that they would disaprove of minority though. That sucks.
