Is this national advisor a graduate of your chapter? probably not. Our national advisor is pretty uninvolved and we like it that way. If you throw out the advisor, what will nationals do? Nothing. They might be distastful of it but thats about it, what can they do? Nothing really. They're not going to yank your charter or fine you, it wont happen. If you could replace the advisor with one who would be more apathetic then that might be good.


In our fraternity, what the Alumni says takes precident over what National says and this is the way it should be. Local alumni should support what is best for the chapter, not what is best for the national. The bottom line is that the brotherhood you have locally is more important then what national letters you are wearing...and local brothers come first. If your alumni haven't lost touch with that then you might have some ammo through your alumni. Sometimes people also lose touch on the fact that a national fraternity is supposed to help YOU, you are paying your national and they are supposed to provide services and support. If your alumni understands this, and your national has become more of a pain then it is worth, there is nothing stopping you from leaving your national and becoming a local organization. This happened before, at my University and 30 years later that fraternity still exists as a local.
