Hey everyone!
I thought that I would shed a little light on this considering my chapter just participated in the same thing in 2001. What this is called is a Fraternity Assisted COB. It is basically like another full week of recruitment for the DG chapter that is pushed along by interviews with potentials, events, and lots and lots of PR! All of the initiated members from the chapter are still there (they are not told to go alum or the chapter hasn't been gone for some years). This type of recruitment is used to help chapters that might possibly have trouble getting large pledge classes or hitting quota to get to house total. It was very successful for us and I have also heard that it has been successful elsewhere too. Quota during formal recruitment was 11 in which we hit and we also took 20+ women during our assisted COB.
So if that gives you a little idea as to what it is like and what it is, it definately is a great opportunity for these chapters!
